Some Windows Shared Folders Read-Only

[pjg61]

My host system is Windows 10 running VMware 12.1.1.  I am running El Capitan 10.11.4 as a VM with no problems (well mainly).

 

I created four Shared Folders to the following paths on the host:

 

  C:\

  C:\Users\enduser

  C:\Users\enduser\Downloads

  C:\Users\enduser\Temp

 

They all work fine. But if I try to copy a file from OS X to any of the "default" Windows folders such as Downloads, Pictures, Documents, Desktop, these folders are Read-Only. Any subfolder is Read/Write.  The "Temp" folder which is at the same level as Downloads is Read/Write. Only those "default" Windows folders are Read-Only.

 

The Shared Folders are ALL defined as Read/Write (aka NOT Read-Only).  On the host Windows side, the folders all have the same ACLs.

 

I am using Bridged networking but this should have nothing to do with the Shared Folders.

 

Any ideas ?
