Hi I have set the permissions on a folder in a DMS to restrict the entry to just me and the HR team, there are no other users on the list, yet everyone can still access the folder. Is there something i am doing wrong? Thanks in advance

How you set permissions? Manage permissions for a list, library, folder, document, or list item - office.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint-server-help/manage-permissions-for-a-list-library-folder-document-or-list-item-HA010021564.aspx

Hi Thanks for the reply and sorry for not getting back to your earlier. I have followed the instructions on this page exactly and there is no change on the permissions on the folder. I have deleted all users from the list appart from me and HR and everyone can still get into the folder. any idea where i might be going wrong? thanks again

Hi ez44, I’ve encountered and solved some problems similar to this recently. Too many situations may cause this result. So could you describe more clearly about the steps you set permissions? Thanks, Hellen Come on!
