Why each option
The issue where new subfolders are only accessible by their creator indicates a lack of permission inheritance from the parent share.
Elevating quota limitations pertains to storage space restrictions, which is unrelated to file access permissions.
Enabling inheritance for folder permissions ensures that new subfolders and files automatically receive the same access control list (ACL) entries as their parent folder. This would allow all users with access to the parent share to also access newly created subfolders and their contents.
Requiring multifactor authentication is an identity verification method and does not directly impact file system access permissions for a shared folder.
Removing the archive attribute affects backup processes by indicating file modification, but it does not control user access to folders or files.
