About this tag
Discussions about Windows public documents cover permission settings, backup errors, and folder responsiveness. Users configuring read-only access in Windows 11 encounter issues where denying write access still allows deletion, and setting modify deny prevents read access.

These threads focus on troubleshooting access, backup, and indexing problems related to the public documents folder in Windows.

    Windows 7 Lost documents, "unresponsive" folders

    Documents that I saved remained in the Wordpad recent documents for a couple of days, then disappeared, then a search found no trace of the documents. Indexing is on for the whole drive. They are not in any folders that I can find. And a perhaps related problem - the Library had labeled both...
