Delete a Permission
You can delete a permission that includes a specific administrator user or group, a specific role, or a specific
folder.
If
you remove the last permission for an administrator user or group, that administrator user or group is also
removed. Because at least one administrator must have the Administrators role on the root folder, you cannot
remove a permission that would cause that administrator to be removed. You cannot delete an inherited
permission.
