Default VFS Folder Permissions
Upon initial installation, the Virtual File System is loaded with content. The following table summarizes the contents of each folder and the default permissions for the Administrators group (A), the Developers group (D) and the Anonymous user (?). See Folder Permissions for more information about folder permissions.
The Administrator user (not the Administrator's group) always has full access to all folders.
