Permissions - How to remove folder permissions for one person in a group

Question

I want to know if there is a way to set up permissions so that if a group has permissions for a folder, that there is a way to remove a user that belongs to that group from a specific folder inside the folder that the group has permissions to.

The hierarchy goes something like this:

Folder A (group x has permissions for this folder)

• Folder A1 (I want to remove permissions for this folder for one specific user of group x)
• Folder A2

Answer 1

You didn't say if you are using code or just in general...

The process is the same, regardless. Break inheritance on A1 and then set permissions are desired.

The guidance is to minimize number of uniquely-permissioned items in a farm. The maintenance of permissions is one of the most least-understood concepts by end users.
