Windows 10: user file permissions

Hi,I have a senior to a user access to a specific file share folder.The permissions: a user U1, who is in a group G1 have access to a file F1, F1 folder have subfolders with inheritance permissions from F1.The Goal: is to let U1 user access to only 2 subfolders within F1 folder. don't want to remove the U1 user from G1 group to prevent any access issue for U1 user in other apps. also don't want to disable the inheritance, as I need to keep all other permissions for the other users the same.I wonder how I can achieve this goal, I'm assuming to add the user in the advanced part with condition ma

File permissions for another user

Still no joy. Test User can still write to the file. *Sad
This are the steps I have done;

1. Created file in User account
2. Copied file to Test User account
3. Signed into Test User account
4. Right click file
5. Properties > Security > Edit > Add Test User > Allow Read > Deny Write > Advanced > Change Owner to Administrators > To Remove User account had to disable inheritance which removed all accounts except Test User and Administrator
6. Test User can still write to the file!!

Still stuck. Test User still has full control of the file, he can write, modify, cut, copy, paste in fact as if the permissions had not been changed. *Confused
Administrators permissions

 

No permissions

Hi,

I would suggest you to right click on the user's folder for your profile and check if the permissions shows as "read only'. If this is the case, it might be causing the issue. In this case, I would suggest you to go to C:\User folder, right click on the
folder with your username and follow these steps:

• Open the properties of the main user profile folder where the files are located (such as Documents, Pictures, etc).
  
• Go to the Security tab and click Advanced.
• Check the box at the bottom of this window. It is labeled "Replace all child object permissions with inheritable permissions from this object" and then click Ok.
  

This does a one-time action that replaces the security on all the files/subfolders. It’s one-time, so you won’t find that box checked if you peek at it later. Try these steps and let us know the results for further assistance.
