Restrict user from access of some folders in SharePoint library

Hi everybody!

I have a security group “all_site_users”, they can read and edit all documents the site.

At the onboarding process joins an user automatically this group.

There is another group “not_these_folder” with members, who are also in all_site_users.

I want to exclude the not_these_folder group from access of some folders in the document library. And I don’t want to change the membership of all_site_users.

How can I do this? I see only the restricted view permission, but so the users can read.

Best regards

Adrian

      The problem is, that the not_these_folder group (the group members) is a subset of all_site_users. So the not_these_folder group cannot be removed. The library is permitted to all_site_users.
