Hi, Nobodyy.

I'm Jen, a Windows user just like you. I'm not working for Microsoft but I'd be happy to help you figure this out.

I understand you're still unable to access the folder after attempting to change the ownership. To help you continue troubleshooting, I shared an article below with additional methods that you might have missed.

I hope this helps. Feel free to share how it went.
