Explanation
When creating a folder, you can toggle the Compliance Mode switch to enable Compliance Mode. This option is available only when creating a folder from the root folder. Compliance Mode folders can only be created as first-level folders; any second-level or deeper subfolders cannot have Compliance Mode enabled. Upon enabling Compliance Mode, users must specify a retention time for the folder, indicating how long files within the folder will remain immutable.
Attempting to modify or delete files within a Compliance Mode folder during the retention period will result in error messages. Additionally, Compliance Mode folders have higher priority than lifecycle settings and manual locks, ensuring that files remain protected according to WORM policies.
