Permissions Error
We have a SQL Server 2016 DB due to a shortage of disk space we are trying to move the DB's on the C Drive to the E Drive. We have 1 DB that was already there and that one works fine. I can copy the DB's we want to move to that folder but when I try to attach that DB to SQL Server I get a permissions Error???

RayMilhon , the SQL Server service account needs full access permissions on the drive/sub folders.
See Configure File System Permissions for Database Engine Access

olafhelper I've notified our Network Administrator Now I just have to wait for him to respond. Unfortunately I don't have access to fix it.
