SYMPTOMS
When you try to modify a folder (private or shared) in versions 3.0, 3.0b, or 3.2 of Microsoft Mail for PC Networks, MS-DOS workstation, an error message may be displayed:

Notice 64 Failure to modify folder rights



CAUSE
This error is caused by the corresponding folder file missing or having read-only attributes.



RESOLUTION
The folder file for that folder can be determined by doing a debug on FOLDROOT.IDX if it is a public folder, or on the user's eight digit IDX file if it is a private folder.

If the .FLD file exists, check the attributes and remove the read-only attribute if it has been set. If the .FLD is missing, the file can be restored from the backup.

However, if a backup is not available, then in order to delete the folder, the user should create a new folder and copy the new .FLD file to the .FLD that is missing.

For example, if the missing folder file is 00000010.FLD and the new folder created is 00000011.FLD, then copy 00000011.FLD to 00000010.FLD. The file size for the new folder should be 129 bytes. Now you will be able to delete the folder.
