group) to the folder is set as No access, then admin (or the user belongin g to the administrators group) will only

Allow Domain Users or Groups to Access Shared Folders
Go to Main Menu > Control Panel > Domain Privileges to set up and modify the access permission of a
domain user or group, and enable the home service for all domain users.
To manage domain users’ access privileges:
admin or users belonging to the administrators group can set up the shared folder permission and the quota of
disk capacity of each domain user. The rule of settings are:
Privileges priority: NA > RW > RO.
Privilege preview: User’s privilege would be shown here, and that is decided based on the privileges setting
of the user and the groups joined by the user.
Group privileges: Assign privileges to groups access to access shared folders.
