We have been recently migrated from SharePoint 2007 to SharePoint 2010 environment so we are still in the phase to setup the complete settings in the environments. We have created some site collections and give to so many departments to do application testing so that we can analyse the errors and take appropriate action according to those exceptions.
So many users have reported that they are not able to
upload multiple documents as “multiple documents” option is disabled/greyed
out.
Also, some have reported that they are getting the
following error message:
This control is currently disabled. You might
not have the right permission level to use this, you might need to select an
object or item, or the control might not work in this context.
Let me tell you guys that this section is very
widespread and can be happen because of so many reasons. I don’t want to restrict
this thread with only one solution as while debugging on this issue, I have
explored so many options and would like to share all the options with you so
that you can take a benefit of this and issue can be resolved in easy as well
as proficient manner.
I am going to elaborate this information in step by
step manner so in case of any queries/questions regarding any step then please
let me know. I would be more than happy to help you as well as resolves your
issues, Thank you.
