How to enable file auditing for exchange server V15 folder

Question

So I want to enable auditing on this specific folder V15 located under program files>Microsoft>Exchange server

But on the auditing tab I get a Message "you must be an administrator or have been given the appropriate privileges to view the auditing properties of this object"

When I click "Continue", the "Auditing" tab disappears. I have already enabled in group policy

How do I get the option to add and not get this message or is there any other way ??

The message is quite clear: you should have the right to view the auditing properties of this folder. It looks like you didn't. — LeRouteur, Oct 05 '20 at 10:30
@LeRouteur I am logged in using the administrator account ! ? and even my user account has full permissions but that also didn't work ? — David Kent, Oct 05 '20 at 10:34
@LeRouteur I am connecting using RDP...if thats what u r asking ? — David Kent, Oct 05 '20 at 10:39
That's not exactly what I wanted to know: have you an Active Directory domain? If so, are you using the administrator account from this domain or the one of the local machine? — LeRouteur, Oct 05 '20 at 10:40

Have you tried to modify the UAC for your current account? Try to reduce it and see if there is any difference. — Ivan_Wang, Oct 06 '20 at 08:07

Its already at "Never notify" :/ – David Kent Oct 06 '20 at 09:54
Do you encounter the same issue if you enable **Auditing** for other folders with the current account? – Ivan_Wang Oct 07 '20 at 08:29
yes same issue.. – David Kent Oct 07 '20 at 08:39
on my local pc I can do it...But on the server the auditing tab just vanishes as soon as I click on Continue – David Kent Oct 07 '20 at 08:40
Sorry for my late reply. Is your account a member of the **Enterprise Admin/Domain Admin** group? Is your computer a member of the **Exchange Trusted Subsystem** group? – Ivan_Wang Oct 15 '20 at 09:23
