Looking for a way, as admin to a shared folder which contains sub-folders, to keep other team members from accidentally moving those sub-folders. Part of it is education: novices do not grasp that by...

Is there a way to prevent users from moving a specific folder, or lock a folder in its current position? The user should still be able to edit its contents though.
Or, prevent a user from being able to delete a specific folder while still being able to edit its contents.

Hello marauder28!
Thanks for joining our Community!
I understand you would like to have additional settings to prevent the movement of folders from members without removing their permissions to edit. This option is not available at the time. But it is a very good feature request and I will report it! :dividers:
I would like to point out that moving shared folders only reflects for the user moving them when sharing is not in a team folder. The other members of the folder would still see the shared folder in the original location. This gives everyone the ability to organise their content as they wish.
Moving folders in a Team folder, allows the members of the team folder to see the movement, if the destination location of the directory is also inside the Team space.
Note: Only the Admin can move a folder, completely out of a Team space.
Finally, as described by MissT5, when someone moves a folder, the system takes time to transfer all the files to the new filepath you chose. If you move it back or elsewhere the system would again take time to sync the changes. :arrows_counterclockwise:
Again thank you for the feature request! :nerd:
