Hi,
Users are not able to access to folder if the access is granted via group.
Error 'Access is denied'. However if the access is granted individually,
users are able to access to the folder. Both the individual and groups rights
are similar.

Let's have some hard evidence of your observation. Assuming
that "Q:\Some Folder" is the problem folder, do this:

- Grant group access to user xxx but not individual access.
- Log on as xxx.
- Open a Command Prompt.
- Run the following commands:
echo %date% %time% > c:\test.txt
net user "%UserName%" >> c:\test.txt
cacls "Q:\Some Folder" >> c:\test.txt
dir "Q:\Some Folder" >> c:\test.txt
copy c:\test.txt "Q:\Some Folder" 1>>c:\test.txt 2>>&1
notepad c:\test.txt

Now post the contents of this file into your reply.
