An administrator can take ownership. If you can't, maybe you're not admin.
If you are admin and still can't take ownership, maybe taking ownership
requires exclusive access and someone else has an open handle (just a
guess). An administrator can always run as the local machine. You could do
this and use cacls.exe to add your account to the folder's permissions.
