I created a folder in the library. I then selected the folder using checkbox and clicked on “Document Permissions”. In the permissions page, I selected all of the users & groups and deleted them accidentally 🙁 . Immediately doing that, the folder disappeared ( possible because I no more have read access. I tried to create a new folder with same name but got an error saying the folder already exist.
Basically I guess the folder does not have any permissions now.
I am now trying to delete the folder but in vain. I get access denied error . So who is the owner of the folder ? Can you please help .
You could try writing some code that deletes the folder.
Place the delete folder command within a “Run with elevated privilages” block.
You are then deleting the folder using the system rights, rather than the rights of a specific user.
