delete permission
About this tag
Discussions about the delete permission in Windows 10 focus on preventing specific user accounts from deleting files or folders. Users often attempt to deny write permissions via the Security tab, but find that this does not always block deletion. Common troubleshooting involves adjusting advanced security settings, such as removing inheritance or setting explicit deny permissions for the delete subkey. The tag covers practical scenarios where standard permission changes fail, requiring deeper configuration of NTFS permissions to enforce deletion restrictions.
I've tried denying write permission in the Security tab, to the relevant user account, but still I am able to delete the file from that account. Any solutions?
