Today, sharing a folder requires manually sharing each parent folder in the hierarchy. Outlook will simplify this by allowing users to share a folder in a single step, automatically applying the required permissions to its parent folders. Before sharing, users will clearly see which folders (including parent folders) will be shared. This removes manual effort while keeping users informed and in control.
