Users get access to directories they shouldn't

I have a library "Series" with the directories "Shows" and "Shows.Incoming", both containing subdirectories like "Show name". Access to the Incoming directory is explicitly removed for regular users (unchecked). I put new files into "Shows.Incoming/Show name/" to check them without regular users seeing them, before later moving them over. That worked fine until recently, when files there started being accessible for regular users regardless of that removed access to anything under "Shows.Incoming".

Addition: This doesn't happen with "Show name" directories that are only in "Shows.Incoming" and not in "Shows", just with files in "Show name" directories that exist in "Shows.Incoming" AND "Shows".

Hi, and its' only in one place right?

I don't know if I understand you correctly, so here's an example:

Shows/
  Show name 1/
    Episode A1
    Episode A2
Shows.Incoming/
  Show name 1/
    Episode A3
  Show name 2/
    Episode B1
  • In the library, user X has the access check mark set for "Shows" and "Shows.Incoming", and correctly sees all four episode files.
  • In the library, user Y only has access set for "Shows" but inside "Show name 1" sees A1, A2 and incorrectly A3, but correctly doesn't see "Show name 2" at all, and therefore also not B1.
