I am trying to manage the access to a folder on sharepoint and I need to remove the edit access for some people. It seems I am not allowed to do it. (I and the folder owner and I am an admin)

Can anybody tell me what to do?

Thanks

    Hi @MMBot ,

    According to the information you provided, you shared the folder through the copy link. Currently there is no way to modify the permissions. You can only delete the link, cancel the sharing, and then share the folder with those who need it again. If you still have this need in the future, it is recommended that you grant permissions to the user through manage access, so that the permissions can be changed later.
