 All other properties are related to specific features to enable/disable by the ACL setting. Just set them to <code>true</code> or <code>false</code> according to your needs. Setting an option to <code>true</code> enables it, while setting it to <code>false</code> disables it.

 The above example only refers to file operations inside the <code>/Company/Logos</code> folder and all its child folders. It does not restrict operations on the folder so the user can delete or rename the folder.
 In order to restrict users from modifying the folder (not its contents) you should change the permissions in its parent folder. For example:
 <source lang="asp">acl = AccessControl.Add();

 * The folder path has to start from a slash character.
 * If you use a wildcard for a resource type (<code>acl.ResourceType = "*";</code>), CKFinder will look through all resource types and apply ACL to every folder that matches the rule, for example <code>Files:/Company/Logos</code>, <code>Flash:/Company/Logos</code>.
