If you start with "read, execute, write" basic permissions and take away "create folders/append data" you get a "drop folder" with read and "write new files only", but applications "save as" functions are unable to save files here. I can presume why... because it creates the file first then tries to rewrite it. Grant it, you can still drag'n'drop or copy/paste new files... but saving directly to this folder from a program fails. Is there a way to create such a folder that doesn't break the save-as function?

  • hmm, generally speaking, the "save as" feature shows you a small file explorer window and expects that you browse **into** the target folder, no ? – Swisstone Jan 30 '20 at 19:28
  • Yes. Folder access is not a problem. "List folder contents" is granted with read/execute. – EricC Jan 31 '20 at 21:31
  • You can use [procmon](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/downloads/procmon) to monitor what's going on when saving – Swisstone Feb 01 '20 at 12:32
