Permission settings protect important folders from being deleted by mistake

I don't know if you have experienced such an experience: if you have accidentally misunderstood or are not paying attention to others on a public computer, delete the folder with important information. If the recycle bin is not emptied, there is still room for recovery, but if the recycle bin is emptied, then regret it later.

If the folder is saved in the NTFS partition, then the permission settings can be used to easily protect important folders from being deleted by mistake, and others are not allowed to delete, but free read and write access is allowed.

For example, if you need to protect the "D: Company Profile" folder from being deleted by mistake, you can do this:

Step 1 Right click on the "D:Company Profile" folder and select "Properties" "Command, switch to the "Security" tab and set the full control of the default "Everyone" account to "Reject" (this is not repeated here). Step 2 Click the "Add" button, select the user account you want to set in the pop-up dialog box, and click the "OK" button to add it to the user list.

Step 3 Select the user, click the "Advanced" button, select the user added above in the pop-up window, and then click the "Edit" button,

Step 4 In the advanced security settings window that pops up, set the user's "Delete subfolders and files" and "Delete" permissions on the folder to "Reject".

Tip: If you can't find the "Security" tab in the file's Properties window, in the Explorer, click the "Tools" → "Folder Options" menu command. Then switch to the "View" tab and uncheck the "Use simple files to work with" item below it.
