inheritance
About this tag
The inheritance tag on WindowsForum.com covers two distinct topics: Windows file and folder permission inheritance, and object-oriented programming (OOP) inheritance. In the Windows context, discussions focus on how permissions and ownership are inherited from parent folders to child objects, troubleshooting broken inheritance, and using scripts to enforce inheritance. Users seek to understand and resolve permission issues, especially when child objects do not inherit permissions as expected. The tag also appears in a thread about OOP concepts, where inheritance is a fundamental principle of object-oriented programming languages like C++ and Java. Additionally, one thread mentions inheritance as a source of funds for a PC build, but this is a minor usage.

Assume I have a file
D:\aaa\bbb\ccc\ddd.txt
Can this file inherit its owner from the wrapping folder?
Can folder ccc inherit its owner from the parent folder bbb?
Or is inheritance only applicable to access permissions and not to ownership?
