in the selected folder only. For example, in the folder "Dept", only admin can
create files and subfolders Admin, HR, Production, and so on. Other users with
read/write access to Dept can only create files and folders in the second and
lower-level subfolders such as Admin01, Admin02, HR1, and HR2.
o
Apply changes to files and subfolders: Apply permissions settings except owner
protection and root folder write protection settings to all the files and subfolders
within the selected folder. These settings include new users, deleted users,
modified permissions, and folder owner. The options "Only the owner can delete
the contents" and "Only admin can create files and folders" will not be applied to
subfolders.
o
Apply and replace all existing permissions of this folder, files, and subfolders:
Select this option to override all previously configured permissions of the
selected folder and its files and subfolders except owner protection and root
folder write protection settings. The options "Only the owner can delete the
contents" and "Only admin can create files and folders" will not be applied to
subfolders.
o
Special Permission: This option is only available for root folders. Select this
option and choose between "Read only" or "Read/Write" to allow a user to access
to all the contents of a folder irrespectively of the pre-configured permissions. A
user with special permission will be identified as "admin" when he/she connects to
the folder via Microsoft Networking. If you have granted special permission with
"Read/Write" access to the user, the user will have full access and is able to
configure the folder permissions on Windows. Note that all the files created by
this user belong to "admin". Since "admin" does not have quota limit on the NAS,
the number and size of the files created by users with special permission will not
be limited by their pre-configured quota settings. This option should be used for
administrative and backup tasks only.

Folder Permission is enabled.
If you have specified "deny access" for a user on the root folder, the user will not
be allowed to access the folder and subfolders even if you select read/write
access to the subfolders.
If you have specified "read only access" for a user on the root folder, the user will
have read only access to all the subfolders even if you select read/write access
