2

My opinion:

When a user has tried to access or modify the date of a file but the user has no access to that file then an alert message will pop up.

3

When modifying the file’s date isn’t allowed to users an alert will be popped up if the user’s trying to do so.

4

Tort’s suggestion was much better, E2.
Yours is grammatically incorrect and contains punctuation errors.

5

If modifying the file’s date isn’t allowed to the user, an alert will be popped up if the user’s trying to do so.

Please show the mistakes.

Thanks

6

If modifying the file’s date isn’t allowed to the user, an alert will be popped up if the user’s trying to do so.

7

If modifying the file’s date isn’t allowed to a user and the user tries so, an alert pops up.

Any better?

Thanks

8

The best I can do with your phrases is:
If a user is not allowed to modify a file’s data then an alert will pop up if he tries to do so.

However, the original uses ‘when’ not ‘if’.

I would like to say :

An alert will pop up if an unprivileged user tries to access or modify a protected file.

( Access & modify may be classified into different classes of privilege, e.g. some users are allowed to access a file but not to modify it; some have both privileges and some have none. )

In my opinion, ‘unauthorised’ would be better than ‘unprivileged’.

11

Thank you for your response !

I think both are correct.

In the computer field, the word “privilege” is usually used to distinguish the user’s access right. e.g. The administrator is a privilege user and is allowed to access all the files in the computer system while a non-privileged user is not authorized to access some particular files.

When considering the physical area such as the computer centre, however, I think “unauthorized” is a better choice. e.g. A sign showing “Restricted area for unauthorized persons” on the door, meaning that they are not allowed to enter the premises physically. Any suggestions ?

Regards,

Nick

12

As you say, they are both correct. I provided the choice which I would prefer in that sentence.
