You have a folder on your Windows 7 computer that you would like to share with members of your development team. Users should be able to view and edit any file in the shared folder. You share the folder and give Everyone Full Control permission to the shared folder. Users connect to the shared folder and report that they can open the files, but they cannot modify any of the files. What should you do?

Answer:

change the NTFS permissions on the folder that you are sharing

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this, you are going to need to change the NTFS permissions on the folder that you are sharing. These are permissions that allow or prevent the files in that current system location from being modified. In order to do this, you will need to first, right-click on the folder that you are sharing. Next, click on "Properties" and head to the Security tab. Finally, choose the groups or user names of the individuals who have access and check allow on all the boxes. This will give them full control over the data in the folder.
