Special File and Folder Permissions
== Special File and Folder Permissions ==
<google>WIN28BOX</google>
As mentioned previously, basic file and folder permissions are really just pre-packaged collections of special permissions. Special permissions provide a much more fine grained approach to defining permissions on files and folders than is offered by basic permissions. The current special permissions configured on a file or folder can be viewed and modified by right clicking on the object in Windows Explorer, selecting ''Properties'', clicking on the ''Security'' tab of the properties dialog and pressing the ''Advanced'' button. This will display the ''Permissions'' page of the ''Advanced Security Settings'' dialog which contains a list of users and groups for which permissions have been defined. Click on ''Edit'' to access the editable view of the permissions. Select a user or group from the list and click on the ''Edit...'' once again to display the ''Permission Entry'' for the selected user or group for this file or folder. This dialog will appear as illustrated in the following figure:
