Prevent a group from deleting document version history

sharepoint.stackexchange https://sharepoint.stackexchange.com//questions/58224

Question

In a Document/Form Library with versioning enabled (SP 2010), it is possible to delete all versions of a particular document/form simply by going to the "Version History" dialog box. This ability obviously could be unwelcome depending on business requirements for retaining sensitive data. How can I restrict the two link buttons to not be available to certain groups using SharePoint permissions or programmatically? Or just hide them in any way?

Solution

You can acheive this functionality by removing "DeleteVersions" permission from the Permission Level of a Group enter image description here
