Aug 23, 2023 at 13:35 comment added JW0914 If sharing across machines, add user Everyone with full access permissions to the root of the drive, tick the box for inheritance, allow it to process all files/directories, and the issue will never occur again. If it needs to be more secure than that, on each machine it will connected to, add the local user that's accessing it from each machine (you can likely do this from only one machine by granting permissions by SID versus user name) - another way would be to add users accessing it to a specific default group, then adding that group with full access permissions
