Can't Add NTFS Permissions in Server 2008 R2
I just migrated to a Windows Server 2008 R2 File Server using the File Server Migration Toolkit. For some reason, when I want to add NTFS permissions on a folder for a user/group, there is no "Add" button on the Properties -> Security tab. The local admins group is the owner on every folders, with the Domain Admins group being part of that group. How do I get the button to come back?
Not sure if it matters but I changed the server name after the data was migrated.

Even on the root of the drives themselves, there is no "add" button.
Take a screenshot and post
Have to ask: Are you logged on as a local Administrator?

Usually, you get and "add" button to add ntfs permissions for groups/users, right?
