Introduction:
With Windows 10, you do not have to worry about permissions for your documents, as this is already supported by the operating system. Each user has their own profile and set of permissions, which prevents unauthorized access to files and folders.
However, you may want to manually configure permissions on a set of files or folders to prevent other users from accessing the data. This article assumes that other "people" also have access to the same computer that you are using.
If not, you can simply encrypt your hard drive and that's it. However, when other people can access the computer, such as family or friends, permissions can be helpful.

Reading and Execution: Here users can view the subject and run programs of available files and folders.
Read: Users can view files, as well as folders, but the execution is not possible with this permission.
Writing: If you own the write permission, you can create a new one and edit the available rights.
