You shouldn't need to authenticate to access internal drives. How did you set these up? Please provide details.

These are other internal drives, from my previous Win7 installation. Two hard drives divided into three partitions all told. They will be owned by the old Win7 account, which I suppose is at the root of the problem.

Have you read the instructions in the Help Manual regarding mounting drives and partitions?

No. Will do tomorrow. thanks.

I'm still have problems, accessing the mount folder. Here is a series of screenshots:












I also (think) i set TRIM for my SSD, which I was not aware needed to be done.
Also don't know why SMF is adding/showing all the resize info. I did not change any sizes of font or pics.
Trying again using imgur.

I really don't know what to do with your post. Paul please read here - https://www.linuxliteos.com/forums/intro...uidelines/ and edit your last post.

Avoid using any size or color on the text. Just type your message and post your images. K.I.S.

That is precisely what I did.

Looks much better, thanks. Also in future when posting the contents of a file or terminal, use the code brackets, this allows responders to copy your code and paste the changed code eg. with the above fstab file, someone would have to type out those lines again to provide a solution for you, which would take much longer.

Start with giving all of those extra drives unique names, at the moment 2 of them have the same name 'ntfsfiles'. May I suggest each mount is called by its drive name, eg. 'segate400' 'seagate520' ,wd2tb'. So first, rename those old mount points in your home folder, then change your fstab file to reflect the new names. Use lowercase only. When you've finished, open a terminal and do:


to mount the newly named mount points without having to reboot.

Then right click on those folders you have mounted, and screen shot each of the 3 mounts Permissions tabs.
