Taking Ownership tutorials
-
You can transfer ownership of files and folders from one user account or group to another user account or group.
-
The owner of the file or folder, or any user with Full Control permission can assign the Full Control standard permission or the Take Ownership special access permission to another user account or group, allowing user to take ownership.
-
An administrator can take ownership of a folder or file, regardless of assigned permissions. If an administrator takes ownership, the Administrators group becomes the owner and any member of the Administrators group can change the permissions for the file or folder & assign Take Ownership permission to another user or group.
-
For e.g. if an employee leaves the company, an administrator can take ownership of the employee's files, assign the Take Ownership permission to another employee, and then that employee can take ownership of the former employee's files.
