Strange NTFS rights inheritance behavior. What am I doing wrong?
Good afternoon. There are two user groups, let gr1 and gr2. I create a folder, I give the first group full access to it, the second I give only "create files / write data".
1. If a user of the group gr2 copies a file to this folder, the file correctly inherits the rights of the folder and saves the contents (this is how, logically, everything should work)
2. If the user moves a file to the folder, then the file loses all rights and becomes inaccessible to absolutely everyone , but retains the content
3. If the user copies the file via the command line, then the file correctly inherits the rights, but loses the content
4. Finally, when moving via the command line, the command prompt denies access BUT moves the file, saves the content and the file again loses all rights.
Why does inheritance of rights behave so strangely?

I'm certainly not a Windows wizard, but it seems to me that you need to check the box "Replace all permissions of a child object" on the "Permissions" tab. it is these two checkboxes "add permissions" and "replace all permissions" that determine how you will have the rights to the files.
