Apply permissions to all files in a synchronised folder

Thu May 18, 2023 4:16 am

Hi,

I have a local directory that contains a number of files. When files are added to this directory, they are always set as read only.

In my installer, this folder is included as a synchronised folder. When installed, I'd like all files that end up in this folder to be granted full permissions.

Is there an easy way to achieve this? I have set permissions in the installer for the folder, but these permissions do not propagate onto the contained files.

Thanks in Advance
Anthony

Hello Anthony,

This is quite strange.

I have tested this on my end on a sample project and it looked like the file inherited the permission from the parent folder.

That being said, could you please create a sample project that reproduces this and forward it to me via email at support at advancedinstaller dot com?

Best regards,
