I am the only admin. 

I have to click the ... then Folder Activity and then rewind. 

As admin I do not have access to certain folders. I was hoping I would not have to add me to every folder to ensure Rewind would work in case we ever needed it. 

What is my best course of action?

    Hey soonerdm - thanks for clarifying that for us.

    May I ask if you're getting the same results on other browsers as well?

    If you do, does this occur for folders you own or for ones that are owned by others only?
