You require permission from (user) to make changes to this file
I utilized this method to enable the recycle bin for a network drive. The network drive was on an HP computer that I connected to through my primary workstation using Windows built-in file sharing (right click on the drive -> properties -> sharing -> advanced sharing -> permissions -> added "network" with full control).
On the HP machine, I had no problem with this; I could delete a file located on the HP system from my workstation and it would go directly to the recycle bin, as I would expect.
However, recently, I moved the drive from the HP computer into a new Intel NUC. I went through the same setup with this NUC, and now I receive an error when I attempt to delete a file on the NUC from the workstation:

It says I require permission from the NUC user in order to delete the file. Yet, I still have that drive being shared with full control for network users, like so:

and I have authenticated with my username and password, so I can browse around and view files on the network drive (and even create new ones). I simply get that error when I attempt to delete the files.
If I don't use the trick I linked at the beginning, I can delete the files with no problem, except that it permanently deletes them rather than sending them to the Recycle Bin as I desire.
I also added "Network" to the security tab of the drive, and gave them full permissions (except for special permissions). When I did this, it brought up a dialog box where it was applying the permissions to every file recursively, although it did return an error for the $RECYCLE.BIN folder, in case that's relevant.
Any idea what's happening here? What do I need to change to get the recycle bin enabled for this network drive? I don't see what's different from the time that I had done it before where it worked OK, other than the fact that the hardware is different. I must have something else not configured properly, but I don't know what.
Any suggestions for what to look at would be welcome. Thanks.
