Notes
-
You can only set file and folder permissions on drives formatted to use NTFS.
-
To change permissions, you must be the owner or have been granted permission by the owner to do so.
-
Groups or users who are granted Full Control for a folder can delete files and subfolders within that folder, regardless of the permissions that protect the files and subfolders.
-
If the check boxes under Permissions for User or Group are shaded or if the Remove button is unavailable, then the file or folder has inherited permissions from the parent folder.
-
When adding a new user or group, by default, this user or group will have Read, Read and Execute, and List Folder Contents permissions.
