If as an administrator I remove all permissions from a folder - and set the owner to another user in Active Directory, I will not be able to copy that folder through explorer to another folder/drive or server etc.
How come robocopy can? For example - this command:
start robocopy "F:\NoPerm" "G:\Test" /MIR /COPYALL /ZB /W:1 /R:1 /LOG:F:\Test.txt /TEE
Where there are no permissions assigned for anyone on F:\NoPerm
, but Robocopy can still read content and copy files and permissions to G:\Test
