You can give write permission by running below command in your CLI.

takeown /F <folder name>

For Example:

 takeown /F C:\wamp\www\Magento\www\pub\static

this worked for me along with removing the generated folder, I used Magento 2.3.4 and PHP 7.2.29 and given the permission to Magento root folder takeown /F C:\xampp\htdocs\magento223 – Ankur Jain Apr 20 '20 at 06:38

you can Use takeown command to give write permission to the file

takeown /r /d y /f *

^ Recursively give permission to all files without prompting "are you sure".

Use following with icacls set the access control list

icacls * /t /grant Everyone:F

This will recursively grant Full access to user group "Everyone" to all files in the folder.
