Windows 10: External Drive and Execute Permissions. How To Turn On.

Is your external drive not allowing you to have execute permissions?  Do this:

1- Run regedit.exe

2- Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\RemovableStorageDevices and set Deny_Execute to 0.



3- Go to: Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Control\Storage and set Deny_Execute to 0.



Now restart your computer and you should be good to go.  If you work on a managed PC, the system may set these back to 1.  You will have to go back and repeat steps 1-3.
