To remove the delete file/folder permission from some users in SharePoint, you can create a custom permission level that does not include the `Delete Items` permission and assign it to those users.
Here's how you can do this:
- Click on `Site settings` and then go to `Users and Permissions` > `Site permissions`.
- Click on `Permission Levels`, and then click on `Add a Permission Level`.
- Give a name for the new permission level and check the boxes for the permissions you want to include. Make sure to uncheck the `Delete Items` option.
- Click on `Create` to create the new permission level.
Once you have created the custom permission level, you can assign it to specific users or groups to restrict them from deleting files or folders.
