You can grant permissions to a user on a directory (Read, Write, Modify) using the Windows command line, for example,

icacls “D:\dy” /grant administrtor:(OI)(CI)F /T

• F = Full Control
• CI = Container Inherit – This flag indicates that subordinate containers will inherit this ACE.
• OI = Object Inherit – This flag indicates that subordinate files will inherit the ACE.
• /T = Apply recursively to existing files and sub-folders. (OI and CI only apply to new files and sub-folders). Credit: comment by @AlexSpence.

To take ownership:

icacls “D:\dy” /grant Administrators:F /T /C

Situation: After a user leaves the organization, the client would like to know how they can keep the mailbox available without paying Microsoft 365 license.

• You can’t sign in directly to a shared mailbox, you will need a user account for that
• No Online Archive
• Share the mailbox with no more than 25 persons
• Users can delete mail from a shared mailbox, there is no way to prevent that.

• Go to File > Options > Mail > Spelling and Autocorrect > Proofing.

Quoted from Microsoft:

The Tenant Allow/Block List in the Microsoft Defender portal gives you a way to manually override the Defender for Office 365 or EOP filtering verdicts. The list is used during mail flow for incoming messages from external senders.

The Tenant Allow/Block List doesn’t apply to internal messages within the organization.

The Tenant Allow/Block list is available in the Microsoft Defender portal at https://security.microsoft.com > Policies & rules > Threat Policies > Tenant Allow/Block Lists in the Rules section. To go directly to the Tenant Allow/Block Lists page, use https://security.microsoft.com/tenantAllowBlockList.

In most cases, you can’t directly create allow entries in the Tenant Allow/Block List:

To allow entries in the Tenant Allow/Block List, please fllow these steps: you can’t create allow entries directly in the Tenant Allow/Block List. Instead you use the Submissions page at https://security.microsoft.com/reportsubmission to report the email, email attachment, or URL to Microsoft as Should not have been blocked (False positive).

Click on Allow email addresses or domains by submitting the email to Microsoft.

Select Type, email or URL (for domain name). Enter the email address or domain name. Check allow email…. Click Submit.
