In your organization, each department has a folder on a shared drive. Your boss frequently copies the folder to his local computer to run reports. You have noticed that the folder for your department keeps disappearing from the shared drive. You discover that the folder isn't being deleted and often gets moved into a random, nearby folder. You suspect that coworkers in other departments are being careless with their mouse clicks while accessing their own folders on the shared drive and are dragging and dropping your department folder into other folders without noticing. How can you prevent this folder from being moved, but still allow it to be copied? What steps do you take?

What will be an ideal response?


When a folder is moved, it is deleted from its original location. When you remove the
ability of users to delete the folder, users are allowed to copy but not move the folder. To set
these permissions, use the Properties box of the folder to disable inheritance on the folder. Then,
for all users except Administrators and SYSTEM users, open the
Permission Entry
for the folder. Click
Show advanced permissions
and remove the check mark for
Delete
. Apply
changes and close all windows.
