An error occurred while applying security information to
While attempting to move files from a hard drive I recovered I kept getting the following error on a specific set of files.
An error occurred while applying security information to
{G:\Folder}
Failed to enumerate objects in the container. Access is denied.
In order to fix it did the following.
-Open a Command Prompt "As Administrator"
-Run the following commands:
takeown /f "G:\folder" /r /d y
icacls "G:\folder" /grant administrators:F /T

Thanks again.
Thanks a lot
You may also try Computer Management/Shared Folders/Open Files and close any affected files. For me this solved the problem.

For the ones saying the command doesn't work, put a space after the folder name, as in:
takeown /f G:\folder /r /d y
one more thing, change "administrators" for your administrator name, like my case, in portuguese, it goes like this:
icacls G:\folder /grant administrador:F /T
Thanks a lot, Richard
LEGEND !!!
