Zipped folders are created without inherited permissions

When I create a zip folder, the zip folder does not inherit permissions are from its parent folder, nor from the files being archived.
(Fixing the permissions manually is not a problem -- only an inconvenience -- but this is repetitive.) I confirmed that the text files, before archiving, have inherited full-control for Everyone from the parent folder.
Specific example:
-- in a folder with inherited full-control for Everyone, I archive text files.
-- I archive the files by selecting a group of them, right-clicking the selection, hovering over "Send to", and selecting "Compressed (zipped) folder".
-- The zip folder is created within the same folder...
but the zip folder does not allow full-control to Everyone.
Why I care:
The parent folder is being backed-up using a bat file that executes ROBOCOPY.
The robocopy fails to backup the zip sub-folders.
I have to edit the permissions on each zip sub-folder after creating it, or set ROBOCOPY parameters to limit retries (in which case zip folders are not backed up).
Is there a simple fix, trick, or setting to make "Send to" / "Compressed (zipped) folder" automatically create the zip folder with inherited permissions?
(Note: this problem mostly affects us on one of our "Server 2008 R2" systems, but I have recreated it in Windows 7.)
(Also: I posted this question first on answers.microsoft.com, but was told to post it here.)

I realise that this is post has been here for a long time but I happened to be researching something similar and think I have somewhat of a solution for you.
Send to compressed (zipped) folder inherites permissions from the temp folder as this is the folder that windows uses to make the zip file.
Try changing the permissions to %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Temp

Folders are creating automatically in Sql Server Report Manger

Dear All,
I am using Sql Server Reporting Services. And i have created Diffrent Folders in Report Manager,
And deployed various reports. Now the problem is one folder created automatically in Report Manager as 'User Folders'
and in that folder, sub folders are created automatically whenenver users are extracting the reports.
Iam getting the below error whenever iam going to delete that folders,
The permissions granted to user 'sbkhetan' are insufficient for performing this operation. (rsAccessDenied)
Pl help me on this issue. How can i delete that folders,
Thanks

That folder is part of the My Reports functionality. As long as you've got that activated you cannot delete the folder...
"While the feature is activated, Users Folders and its subfolders cannot be deleted. Furthermore, the name "My Reports" becomes
a reserved name for folders created under the root node (Home)."

Site template without inherited permissions

Can I not create a site template with permissions inheritance off. When I break inheritance, create a template based on that site, then create a new site based on that template then inheritance is back on again......that's bad
Seems like that would be a core need for site templates.

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that when you create a new site based on the template then inheritance is back on again.
When you create a new site, if you seelect “Use same permissions as parent site”, it will inheritant permissions.
I recommend to check “Use unique pernussions” to create your own permissions.

Is it possible to set those permissions within the template itself so the user doesnt have to set that up when creating an instance?

HT4236 Problem syncing my photo folders with my iPod. Works fine with iPad, but no folders are created on iPod

I have done as Support info states:
To sync photos from a folder on your hard disk to your device
Drag the images you want into a folder on your computer. If you want images to appear in separate photo albums on your device, create folders inside the main folder and drag images into the new folders.
In iTunes, select the device icon in the Devices list on the left.
Choose "Sync photos from."
Select Choose Folder from the pop-up menu and choose your main image folder.
This works on my New iPad, but not on my iPod touch 4th Gen. Both are running the latest iOS.
I did clear off all the photos from the ipod first, hoping to create a nice tidy directory of sorted photos.
sigh.
please help???

Hi Kevinmvb,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
The article below may be able to help you with this. It sounds like you may have moved your photos out of the Uploads folder where they need to reside.

New Folders are Read Only

Logging in as admin with full priveledges and when I create a new folder on the deskop, it's Read Only. Get info displays Read/Write access but new folders are created as Read Only. I can't figure out why. Any ideas?

Thanks for the reply. Have tried repairing permissions with the same result. Do you have the command for creating a folder from the Terminal. I'll try that. I don't know what the umask is but I'll report back. Thanks again for the help. This is very strange.

My new folders are not visible in Finder

New folders (generated by a application, SABNZB+, that runs in the background as a web service) will only show up in Finder once I have run a search in Finder and are not visible before. I have tried a disk repair and a permissions rebuild.
Any ideas anyone?

Yes they do, no problems there.
I am starting to believe it might have to do with the fact that the folders are created by an unarchiver that reassembles files after they are downloaded from my newsgroup. The strange thing is that there never used to be a problem, it started somewhere around the second update to mountain lion. But it could also be a new version of the application SABNzb+, I am not sure.
What is also weird is this: I can find the folder when doing a search in Finder, then open the folder, all files are there and the folder is then visible normally.
Edit: The files are reassembled by the unarchiver on the main Macintosh HD, then moved to a different volume and deleted from the originating volume.

Is they're a way to look inside zip folders without extracting it?

Is that possible cause I am thinking of saving space on my HD's by compressing stuff into zip folders then when I want something just extract it without extracting everything?
Or should I do a compressed disk image? But though I will need it for Windows?

Oh, sorry, I answered the thread title, and didn't notice that the question you asked was actually different. The 'unzip -l will only list the contents.
To extract a specific file, use the form:<pre>unzip archive.zip /file/to/extract</pre>
Now things are actually a bit more complicated than that since HFS+ exended attributes and resource forks are stored separately in the "__MACOSX" folder of the archive in "AppleDouble" format. The File and ._File have to be placed into the same folder and recombined using "/System/Library/CoreServices/FixupResourceForks", but for most files, this extra step won't strictly be necessary.

How can I create a mail folder where my gmail folders are

Hi all, I have Mail with my Gmail account. My 'labels' have appeared as folders in my Mail. That's all great and I've learned how to use them effectively so that they all sync when going back to gmail.
However I cannot create a new 'folder/label' where all the others are. I can only create a new folder as a subfolder and then move it.
Is there a way to create another 'folder/label' where the existing ones are.
See this screenshot, so I'd like to create a folder where 'Adobe' and 'Airmiles' folders are and not as a sub folder of 'Adobe/Airmiles' or of [Google Mail].
Can I do that? I am able to create the folder as a sub folder and then drag and drop where I want it but ideally want to avoid this step.
Thanks in advance
Hayley

Not in Mail. If you referring to not having to use the menu, you can click the + sign at the bottom to create new mailboxes. But you still have to fill in the window with location and name. You can right click to create a new mailbox on an existing one, but not in the main account itself and you still have to fill in the info. It would create a sub folder.
You can also try it at the gmail website. There might be shortcuts there.

When I tried to back up my computer, Time Machine says 'an error occurred while creating the backup folder.' When I check the side of the partition where I manually saved old files, the folders are there, but NONE of the files are.

I haven't backed up my computer in over a year. When I tried to back it up today, Time Machine says 'an error occurred while creating the backup folder.' When I check the side of the partition where I manually saved old photos and documents (including all the pictures from the year I studied abroad/traveled a bunch), the folders are there, but NONE of the files are.
Does anyone have any idea what the problem might be, or how I could fix it? I really don't want to lose all those photos

So you were doing a time machine backup to another partition on the same hard drive? Just trying to gather some information so i can provide a helpful response.

How to create zip folders

i need to upload a .html doc with image files. Can Firefox create a zip folder and/or convert files to compressed/zip so I can upload as 1 folder? My XP explorer has no option to make a zip folder and I cant afford to buy winzip.

Firefox and all other browsers can not create zip folders because it is a browser, not a specific zip program.
An excellent freeware zip program you can download from here:

or

How do I disable zip folders in Windows 7?

I like to use a third-party archive application, so I really don't like how by default Windows makes zip files expand automatically in Windows Explorer and show up in the folder view.
So... How do I disable zip folders in Windows 7?
In XP and Vista, I was able to find solutions to remove this "feature"
In XP, I simply did...
regsvr32 /u zipfldr.dll
In Vista, I had to remove a couple registry entries:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
; Disable ZIP support in Windows Vista
; restart Windows after applying this patch
[-HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{E88DCCE0-B7B3-11d1-A9F0-00AA0060FA31}]
[-HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{0CD7A5C0-9F37-11CE-AE65-08002B2E1262}]
I don't want to guess and delete the wrong registry entries if someone else knows which ones I need to remove.

EDIT - I HAVE FOUND A SOLUTION
After considerable browsing (thank you, Google), I have a solution that works. It is based on fixes for Vista, but works 100% for my Windows 7 64-bit install.
You will need to edit your registry (delete 2 different keys), so I highly recommend you back up your registry or better yet, make an image of your OS drive (probably C:\). I use Norton Ghost 2003 (only from a NG 2003 boot floppy) and have never had a single problem. Norton Ghost does not have to be installed on your system for this to work (in fact, it will stall due to compatibility issues).
First a note regarding the various reg tweaks that are available for download (e.g., "vistaunzip.reg"). These will NOT work - undoubtedly due to ownership/permissions issues.
The following two (2) keys need to be deleted fromthe registry:
For zip files delete the regkey
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{E88DCCE0-B7B3-11d1-A9F0-00AA0060FA31}
For cab files delete
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{0CD7A5C0-9F37-11CE-AE65-08002B2E1262}
When you try to delete them, you will almost certainly get an "access denied" or "failed" type of message. Before you can delete them, you need to change the permissions/ownership of these two keys. Here is how to do it:
01 - open regedit from the RUN console
02 - navigate to the first key that needs to be deleted (HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{E88DCCE0- B7B3-11d1-A9F0-00AA0060FA31})
03 - right click on the key and select "Permissions"
04 - click on "Advanced"
05 - click on the "Ownership" tab
06 - in the "change owner to" section, highlight your username
07 - check the box for "replace owner on subcontainers and objects"
08 - click on "Apply"
09 - Click "OK"
10 - Under "Security" tab, highlight your username and check the box for "Allow Full Control" (located mid-menu in the "Permissions For Administrators" section)
11 - click "Apply" and "OK"
12 - you can now delete the registry key. MAKE SURE YOU ARE ON THE CORRECT KEY!
13 - repeat the process for the 2nd key.
14 - reboot (changes will NOT take effect until you reboot
15 - VOILA! NO MORE ZIP FOLDERS! woohoo!
16 - thanks to the original solvers of this problem, whomever they may be.
I would like the same help that deedvd is seeking. How do I DISABLE the
zip folder function? I do NOT want my zip files to appear as "folders".
Why anyone in Redmond thought this was a brilliant idea is beyond me.
It adds to clutter and makes file browsing a lot less enjoyable. I
simply want my zip files to appear as files - with the ".zip"
extension. Just like every other file. The responses to deepdvd were
probably as frustrating to him as they are to me. Changing the default
program for zip files is IRRELEVANT. It only changes whether Windows or
some third party app (7Zip, Izarc, etc) OPENS the files. They continue
to show up as folders. I tried the unregister script (earlier thread)
"Running regsvr32 /u %windir%\system32\zipfldr.dll should be enough to disable zip functionality. Then just run your 3rd party archite application and let it re-register archive files." and it did not work. I got the same error that deeddvd got "The module "C:\Windows\system32\zipfldr.dll" was loaded but the entry-point DllUnregisterServer was not found.
Make sure that "C:\Windows\system32\zipfldr.dll" is a valid DLL or OCX file and then try again."
I would love to find a resolution to this problem. If anyone out there knows how to DISABLE the zipfolder function, please post the solution. I am thanking you in advance.
