How can we protect files from deletion in windows server 2012 in a Active Directory Environment but keeping all other permissions as it is. Read/Write/Modify but deny only deletion

windows server 2012 is acting as an Active Directory and file server. We do not want anyone to delete any files from the server

Windows Server 2012
Windows Server 2012
A Microsoft server operating system that supports enterprise-level management, data storage, applications, and communications.

    Hello @Reny j joseph Thuthikattu ,

    Thank you for posting here.

    Based on my knowledge, if you do not want to any one to delete files on one server, you can set deny permission for specific users or user groups on the files or the root folder with files in it.

    And you can only set deny permission for specific users or user groups on the files or the root folder with files in it.
