Student share with edit, but not delete. Can this be done?

[Mark182]

We have a share that we want students to be able to save work in, edit/modify but not delete. I cannot seem to be able to crack it. I've turned off inheritance and added the students security group. I've run the 'effective access' and the results look like this:-

I know that deny will trump anything else and I don't at the moment have create owner group in there. Is what I am after even possible?

Check that you are applying it to 'this folder and all subfolders' ?

Beware of one thing, the permissions can be set up but they may interfere with some software. PowerPoint (the only one I definitely recall) for instance, creates and deletes some temporary files as part of the saving process. If the user has create but no delete rights the save will fail as the temp files can't be removed by the user. Or at least that's how it used to work some years ago when we had something similar set up as a homework hand in area.

Same as above. We had issues with office after setting this up and ended going back.

It worked OK for us as a homework hand in area, provided the students dragged and dropped files into it rather than trying to directly save them there.

How did you crack this? I can’t get it to work?

 

Can you post a screenshot of permissions please ?
