Yeah, Scanner, but run from an account with the necessary mojo.

That's not really true. Scanner isn't going to show me which files are inaccessible, it's just going to include the formerly inaccessible files. If it's all in one big directory, it might be obvious which it is, though. In addition, the user is already an Administrator on the computer.

As it turns out, though, the computer had IBM's Rescue and Recovery program installed and scheduled to perform regular backups of his hard drive onto his hard drive. Which explains why it was almost exactly half. In addition, the directory somehow had had its permissions removed. And, by that, I don't mean that all of the permissions entries were removed, I mean that the GUI didn't give you the security tab at all. It was simply inaccessible. I ran the R&R configuration, deleted the 20-some GB of backups that he didn't need and turned off the schedule.
