I am trying to set up permissions on a homefolder so that the user can make new files and directories in the folder and delete these but not be able to delete their actual home folder.

Ive set the permissions accoring to microsofts recomendation:
The command gives TestUser read, write, run, and delete rights on all new files created in this folder, but only read and write permissions on the folder itself. Type XCACLS *.* /G TestUser:RWED;RW /E at the command prompt, and then press ENTER.

But that wont let the user delete any directories they make in the new folder. They can however make and delete any files either in the root of their home folder or in any new folders they make.

Can you please tell me how this can be resolved. Thanks
