I have the goal to prevent Users from accidentally move or delete folders on one specific hierarchy level of an Windows Server 2019 Share.
Example:
Two User Groups: Admin
and User
|-RootShareDirecory <= Directory that is Shared
|- ProjectFolder1 <= Folder should only be moved / changed / deleted by an admin
|- File1.doc <= User has full access to the content it self.
|- SubFolder2 <= User has full access to the content it self.
|- ProjectFolder2 <= Folder should only be moved / changed / deleted by an admin
...
What have I tried:
I have found multiple solutions for this Issue online, eg:
- How to prevent users from deleting one folder, while still giving them modify permissions to other files and folders?
- https://blogs.uw.edu/curreri/disable-click-and-drag-on-folders/
- https://dilrukj.wordpress.com/2013/01/01/prevent-users-deleting-moving-or-drag-and-drop-folders-in-a-file-share/
So I tried all of them, obviously with no success.
The most of the solutions rely on creating a acl for ProjectFolderX
that deny the delete action to the User
.
Unfortunately i can only get two different results:
- The
ProjectFolderX
is still moveable, but every other action within theRootShareDirecory
is denied. - The
ProjectFolderX
is not movable but also the direct content within ( eg.File1.doc
is not writable.
Can anyone give me a hint, how to solve this issue? Thank you
I usually set permissions on "Traverse Directory" and "List Folders" for directories that shouldn't be changed by users, have you already tried ? – Danfossi – 2020-02-22T09:13:21.753
