Hi all,
Today I am going to tell you all, how to
enable the access for pen-drive or any (F) device plugged in to our
laptop or system. Usually this scenario suits for working people, whose
laptop/system is managed by system/network admin of that office or
helpful for others if their system settings changed accidentally.
Scenario:
When you plug-in the pen-drive, it will show up in system with name but
when you try to access it, you will get a window pop-up message
saying., "Access Denied for (G)" or {whatever the name of the drive}.
In some scenario, you may have access to pen-drive but read/write
operation will not able to perform in it. If you do, it will give the warning that , "you do not have right to perform this operation".(or) "You will need to provide administrator permission to copy to this folder" .

To overcome this, you need to change the following settings in your PC/Laptop.
- Press window + R in keyboard or type "RUN" in search box start menu.
- Then Type "gpedit.msc" in the 'open' textbox of run window.
- You will get a window called "Local Group Policy Editor" and expand the "Administrative Templates" folder in "computer configuration" (Left panel -top)
- From the folder items, scroll to "Removable storage access" and click on it.

| Note the items which has the access "enabled". |
5. Just double click on the items and click disabled it.

| Make it enable by clicking on the item. |
6. Do the same for Deny Execute access, Deny Right Access, Deny Write Access and Deny all Access .
By Enabling all the four, you will get the access to read,write and copy. You can do the same for DVD and other devices.
PS : The environment is windows 10. the same command for 7 and 8 also.
