Error pulling Previous Versions of files on Earth

Modified on Fri, Nov 19, 2021 at 6:25 PM

When attempting to look at Previous Versions of files on the G:/ drive on Earth, for example, you may encounter an error like this one:



Explanation from MattF: 

This is a problematic issue with Windows permissions.  As you probably know, Domain Admins is a member of the local Administrators group on Earth.  Unfortunately, and this is a Windows issue, being a member of local Admins does not result in the same permissions as a group or specific user with explicit perms would.  And since the Previous Versions are on Nimble disk, we can't change perms on them anyway.  
As a workaround at least for now, if you log into Earth as local Administrator, you'll have full perms to all files, folders, and Previous Versions.
