Shared Drive Permissions

I would like to prevent users from accidentally moving folders into each other at the root.  They will also need to have access to edit folders and files inside the root and sub folders.  Can someone steer me in the right direction to get this done?  Server 2008

Thanks.

Hi,

There's not such certain permission we can define.

If the user creates a folder, they are the owner of that folder, so they can do whatever they want with that folder. Try these permissions out

Please apply these settings onto: This folder, subfolders and files

Traverse Folder/Execute File
List Folder/Read Data
Create Files/Write Data
Create Folders/Append Data

What you should get out of this is the user cannot move/delete existing files and folders, but any file or folder they create they will have full modify permissions. I have tested this and that's what happens. I am not assuming anything by reading text, these are what works. You can modify from this to get where you want to be.
