Only the owner can delete the contents: When you apply this option to a folder, e.g.
Dept, only the folder owner can delete the first-level subfolders and files. Users who
are not the owner but possess read/write permission to the folder cannot delete the
folders Admin, HR, Production, Sales, and test in this example. This option does not
apply to the subfolders of the selected folder even if the options "Apply changes to
files and subfolders" and "Apply and replace all existing permissions of this folder, files,
and subfolders" are selected.
o
Only admin can create files and folders: This option is only available for root folders.
Select this option to allow admin to create first-level subfolders and files in the
selected folder only. For example, in the folder "Dept", only admin can create files and
subfolders Admin, HR, Production, and so on. Other users with read/write access to
Dept can only create files and folders in the second and lower-level subfolders such as
Admin01, Admin02, HR1, and HR2.
