ITPEC IP April 2022 — Question 45 of 100

The user had read permission for the file and folder but did not have write permission for the file. Opening and directly editing the document requires access to locate the file in its folder and read its contents. The failure occurs only when overwriting it, which shows that writing is prohibited. This matches file read = Yes, file write = No, folder read = Yes.

Answer (b)

Why not others:
- (a) grants file write permission, so the overwrite should succeed

- (c) and (d) deny file read permission, inconsistent with opening and editing the existing document

Key rule: Read permission allows viewing content; write permission controls saving changes to that file, while folder access allows the file to be found and opened.
