&lt;p&gt;As per my understanding &amp;nbsp;I have attached a screen shot to make you understand&amp;nbsp; about the document folder security.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You can see the above screen shot, where Default(All other Users) have no permission levels .In order to give rights to the users it is best practice to use only groups to configure a security.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
