When selecting copy ACL in Option:

1) even the file/folder has the access right for the current user, there still has an error (this should not be, no?):

Cannot read permissions of "...".
Cannot set privilege "SeSecurityPrivilege".
Error Code 740: The requested operation requires elevation. [AdjustTokenPrivileges]

2) Then, if relaunch FreeFileSync in Admin mode, then no more such error, and ACL is copied correctly. However, then the Drag & Drop of folder to the left and right side does not work anymore!

(It seems this topic is not discussed in here? Have not found any).
Anyone have seen these 2 errors?

1) process elevation and folder permissions are unrelated topics.
2) This is Windows "User Interface Privilege Isolation" in action:
