To grant a group permission to move a file from an old folder to a new folder, which security configuration should you set for this group?

• A. Administrator permission for both folders.
• B. Editor permission for both folders.
• C. Viewer permission for both folders.
• D. No permission.

Answer: (A)

When moving a file from one folder to another, the action effectively combines removing the file from the source folder and adding it to the destination folder. That requires permissions to delete in the old location and to create or modify in the new location, plus any accompanying metadata updates. Granting Administrator permission on both folders provides full control, ensuring the group can perform both sides of the move without being blocked by restrictive permissions. This eliminates the risk of running into a missing-delete or missing-create right when the move is attempted. If you gave only Editor rights, some systems may still block the operation because deleting from the source or creating in the destination can be restricted under that level. Viewer and No permission clearly don’t allow the necessary capabilities. In practice, Admin on both folders is the most reliable, unblocked way for the group to move the file.
