Probably the problem is that I just relogged to Sharepoint as a test user instead of relogged to even windows (The test ures profiles are windows lvl data and not sharepoint only). So after I opened the document as the test user (but from my own windows profile), it was downloaded to my computer. On my PC the windows recognised me as the site admin so even if I opened the document as a limited test user, when I edit & saved it, the sharepoint recognised me as the administrator and allowed to upload. So even if I am being logged in as a test user, I upload as administrator. | |

| Mar 28, 2018 at 6:54 | comment | added | Nefri | Their default is "contribute", but I set them to "read" at this specific document library. (Library settings => Permissions for this document library => Stop inheritance => Customise them) The reason is that they have to fill forms (Custom lists) so they need the contribute permission by default. But this document contains helping informations to fill the a new form, so they have an option to open it during filling the form, but they should not be able to edit it. | |
