Ok this is stumping me mainly because of the lack of experience I have with access control. I have two folders I need to keep away from users. Payroll and Banking.

I went into security and took away all the users. I made a new group called access granted and added it to both folders. I then gave full control to the group. I then added a few days to this group.

I tested with partial success. I can only get into some folders and subfolders/files. I made sure I clicked on the option for all subfolders.

This is my layout

C:(folder) --> permissions granted to admin,access (full control)

when I look at the problem files/folders no one has any permissions I don't even see the group or admin.

what am I doing wrong.

Thanks
