Users with authorization to release locks on content under their folders can do so from the Unlock Managed Content page.

Users can navigate to only the folders that they have security privileges to access.
All members of the qualified viewing community, along with their access types.

The Preview Content link is hidden from users who do not have the correct security access.
Access to the property details of the content if the user has viewer privilege.
