Fedora reads NTFS file systems just fine. I would also try as Larry
suggests and run these .exe under Wine.

This could be a simple permissions issue. Have you tried logging

root and using your file manager to change ownership of the files?

OK so first off...this drive was "created" and used on a Windows XP/7
computer...which I have neither of so I can only assume they're
NTFS
files. When I say they're locked, all the data is "missing" or "hidden"
by something called "WD SmartWare"...there's nothing visible on the
drive but some folders with user manuals in various languages, and
three
".exe" files...the SmartWare one....another called "Virtual CD
Manager.exe"..and finally one ominously called "Unlocker.exe" I've
tried
to access any and all of them to no avail....

Thanks!.....WINE is my next choice...if that doesn't work then I've been told
about something called "off crack"?...which is supposed to be some kind of
password hacking tool....don't know for sure...
It's probably not a password problem. But you'll know more of you run
the program. You are dealing with something that may be the functional
equivalent of a compressed tar file, perhaps with an index file along
with it.
