I am trying to adjust the user permissions for a particular Point data folder on our server, but when I select the "Properties" button it triggers an error message that "The data folder is owned by someone else, or it cannot be reached at this time."

I do not think that "...it cannot be reached..." as I can access a different folder on the same network drive. I can also access the folder in question in Windows Explorer.

I do not know what determines "ownership" of the folder, but is there any way to tell who the "owner" is? I am the admin for our system, and I need to be able to change user permissions on folders.

Any assistance will be appreciated.
Thanks for your help!

I don't think there is a way to know who "owns" the folder.  It just means that you have used the wrong password.  There is a very simple way to reset the password on a datafolder, but I don't think Calyx wants this information posted in their forums.  Think "copy, paste"

Thanks for the tip, I was definitely using the wrong password.
