    Permission problems


    Hi

    I am new to the forum and wasn't sure where to post this so bear with me.

    I have followed tutorials on how to set permissions to accounts but I have a problem. I checked all the permissions for all the accounts except guest but I get the message that I need permission from the admin to delete the folder. I also set the owner to my account and it still doesn't work. thanks for your help

    hello and welcome..

    what folder that's you mean. log on as administrator or user, if you login as user make sure that's you have security permission for delete ( full control for the folder ).

    It is just a folder I created. I am logged on as the owner of the folder and have granted full access on all accounts but still cannot delete the folder
