Yep tried that, the folder is no longer inheriting permissions from Parent (during which got loads of access denied errors on various files) and I still have access denied errors. It;s only happening on about 50% of the files in the folder I'd say

Hi,<br />
<br />
I have a client who runs a 2011 SBS Server which has a number of shared folders, &nbsp;Their main shared folder has a sub folder which until today was shared with everyone but now I've been asked to lock it down so that only a few people can see it. &nbsp;Problem is when I try to change the permissions on that folder it runs through a few files then comes up with &quot;An error occurred while applying security information to: (Path and file name) Access is denied. &nbsp;If I click continue it runs through a few more files then comes up with more where access is denied. &nbsp;<br />
<br />
Any idea how I can get round this please?<br />
<br />
Thanks<br />
<br />
