Four users have placed their documents in a local Shared Documents folder. They want to be able to have the necessary permissions to read, write, and manage all files and folders in Shared Documents. Currently, they have Full Control permission only on the files and folders that they place in Shared Documents. Which of the following should you do to enable what they wish?
  1. Modify the permissions on Shared Documents so that the Users group has Change permission and Read permission.
  2. Instruct each user to modify the permission on the folders they create so that the Owner user has Full Control permission.
  3. Instruct each user to modify the permission on the folders they create so that the Owner user has Change permission and Read permission.
  4. Modify the permissions on Shared Documents so that the Users group has Full Control permission.
Explanation
Answer - D - You should modify the permissions on Shared Documents so that the Users group has Full Control permission.

Key Takeaway: Shared folder permissions are used to restrict access to a folder or file that is shared over the network. Folder sharing is normally used to grant remote users access to files and folders over the network. If you have to grant a user all rights (read, write, edit, delete), the user needs to have full permissions.

Shared folder permissions do not have as many permission options as NTFS permissions. The only shared folder permissions that can be assigned to users/groups are Read, Change, or Full Control.
