Kindly try these steps:
1. Open command prompt and enter this command: net use * /delete and select Yes. This is to be sure that there is no one accessing the shares.
2. Access Frontview.
3. Set Security mode to User.
4. Make sure that there are no Windows Explorer window opened on your PC.
5. On Shares>ShareListing>CIFS>Advanced CIFS Permission check the box that says "Automatically set permissions on new files and folders..." then click Apply.
Note: If it is already checked, uncheck it and click Apply. Then, check it again then click Apply.
6. Click on Advanced Options tab, set the Share folder owner to "nobody" and set the Share folder group to "nogroup." Then check the boxes that says "Set ownership and permission for existing files and folders..." and "Grant rename and delete privileges..." Then click Apply.
Note: Repeat steps 5 & 6 on each share.
7. Try to copy, paste, delete, rename and check if same problem occurs. Do this as well using other PCs/laptops to isolate the problem and make sure you are logged-in as admin user on it.
Hope the instructions above would help :)
