In this command, you must replace <foldername> with the full file system path to the folder you want to take ownership of.
You need to include the /r switch when you want to also take ownership of all the subfolders and files in the specified folder.
You can use the /d switch to specify the default answer the tool should use when it comes across subfolders for which you don’t have List Folder permissions. In this case, the default answer is y (which stands for yes), meaning that the tool will allow you to take ownership of those subfolders, even though you don’t have List Folder permissions.
takeown /f <foldername> /r /d y
