Change the permissions and take ownership of shared files

permissionswindows-server-2008

I have domain controller (windows server 2008) with shared folders. I am logged in as administrator.
I try to take ownership of a shared folder using the command takeown /f <File name> /a /r. The result of same files is access denied. I need to delete this file and I don't know how. I search in the internet that the solution is to turn on file sharing, is that true?
