Access denied to subsite using PowerShell

Hi CheisCheis,

the error message "Access is denied. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070005 (E_ACCESSDENIED))" means that the current user does not have the necessary permissions to perform the requested operation.

In the case of your PowerShell scripts, it is possible that the SharePoint subsite owner does not have the necessary permissions to apply navigation settings to the subsite. This could be because the subsite is a part of a larger site collection and the permissions are inherited from the site collection.

I believe that the best solution is to grant the SharePoint subsite owner the necessary permissions to apply navigation settings.

To do this, follow these steps:

1. Open the SharePoint subsite.
2. Click the Settings gear icon.
3. Click Site permissions.
4. Click Advanced permissions settings.
5. In the Permission Levels section, click Contribute.
6. In the Add Users or Groups section, enter the name of the SharePoint subsite owner and click Add.
7. Click OK to save your changes.

Once you have granted the SharePoint subsite owner the necessary permissions, they should be able to run the PowerShell scripts without any problems.
