Are you unable to remove file or directory on your NTFS drive? Have you tried takeown, cacls, icacls and windows 2003 resource kit tools without any success, because the owner cannot be determined?
Then simply try to run checkdisk on that drive, somehow it’ll fix the problem even it keeps telling you no problems were found and fixed 🙂
chkdsk [your_drive]: /f
e.g.:
chkdsk d: /f
