Hi, I am a Databricks account admin user with admin access to our workspace. My user folder for some reason is visible to all workspace users. I have checked permissions settings where possible and cannot see anything that would indicate fully shared access. Objects inside my folder are not visible, just the folder itself.
If I click Share against that folder, I can see that no specific permissions were granted allowing others (non-admins) to see it.
This is what a workspace user can see who is not an admin and is not a member of any groups with specific permissions. They can see my user folder and I am not sure how to change this

Hello, even with the lowest permissions people will still be able to see / list the folders

Hi @holly , users with no specific permissions do not seem to see user folder of any other user but this one. Sharing settings (first screenshot) are the same, but for some reason this user's folder is shared with everyone.

Hi @Aviral-Bhardwaj , the problem is in the visibility of my user folder to all users, not the workspace itself. We have about 10 users, and for some reason only my user folder (red arrow on my second screenshot) is visible to all users regardless of their permissions.
