We are evaluating a network sharefile access review control. One network user group, TestGroup, was not effectively reviewed as part of the review. This group only had access to a subfolder (example; “\server\Main\Subfolder”) but not the parent/main folder (example; “\server\Main”). Based on windows network security configurations, would this group be able to access in the information within the subfolder, without access to the parent folder?

Hi,
As you mentioned, it is possible to set the permission to access in the information within the subfolder, without access to the parent folder.
As following , when i set the permission to only "subfolders and files":
Then when user can't access the parent folder
But can access the subfolder and files.
Best Regards,
