Disk Quotas, Identifying Ownership

[cwainright]

We've recently begun testing the use of Windows disk quotas to control our data growth without having to purchase 3rd party software. We can see who has how much data, however is there a way to see an actual list of files/folders owned by a certain user?

Navigate to the drive and view the file contents in the detailed view. At the top, right click the collumns and click owner, author, or more and select. Then just sort by the owners using the right click or by clicking the owner collumn.

Although that might not work if it is a shared drive. They might just come up as owned by the Administrator.
