::*A user is assigned Read permission to the NTFS folder C:\ACCOUNTING.

*C)* assigning the user Full control to C:\ACCOUNTING

*D)* blocking permission inheritance at C:\ACCOUNTING and assigning the
user Full control to C:\ACCOUNTING\FORMS

*E)* assigning the user Full control to C:\ACCOUNTING\FORMS






None of those answers are correct. A knowledgeable administrator will never give "Full Control" to an ordinary user. At the most, one one grant users "Modify" permissions.

The problem with the "Modify" priv is that there are still a lot of programs that require Full Control, even for non administrative users. Given this real world restriction, E is the best answer.
