Configuring Access Restrictions for Shared Folders

You may restrict access for specific shared folders, including external USB drives.
Notes:
• Configure access restrictions only through Settings. Configuring access restrictions through Windows is not
supported and may cause unexpected behavior.
• Shared folders with limited access can still be used as backup destinations.
• If you grant both read-only and read and write access to the users or groups, the attributes will become as below:
User with read and write
access
User with read-only access
User with no access
R/W: Read and write, R: Read-only, -: No access
• If you change access restrictions for a user or group while they are accessing files, unexpected behavior may
occur.
