Reloaded windows 7 on my computer recently. This reformatted the drive and deleted Photo gallery.  When I reloaded gallery, and tried to open image files, I was confronted with an error message announcing I did not have adequet permission to open any of these files.

Is there any utility out there that can reset, in bulk, permissions, sharing, and ownership.  It can be done manually, but with several thousand image files,  manual reset is not an option.   Thanks for any positive feedback, that will resolve this issue.
