Hi all,

I added an user to one sharepoint group , later on i removed that user from that group but if i check the permission for that user , It still shows as "Limited Access Given through the "Style Resource Readers" group". Here my question is how to remove the user permanently from the site collection.If i remove "Everyone" from the "Style Resource Readers" does it cause any problem?. Any help or suggestions would be helpful .Thanks in Advance .

As Raghavendar mentioned do not edit " "Limited AccessGiven through the "Style Resource Readers" group" for any reason ... we bunt our fingers in the past and there is no way to restore the older version and messed it up."

Try this

Add-PSSnapin Microsoft.SharePoint.PowerShell -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue #Get the Root web
$web = Get-SPWeb "http://sharepoint.crescent.com/sites/operations" #Supply the user account
$UserAccount = "Global\DaveP" #Removes user from site collection
Remove-SPUser -Identity
$UserAccount -Web $Web -Confirm:$False

Limited Access is a special system permission which SharePoint provides by default.

So dont remove the Style Resource Readers or Everyone it will impact the other users & they will lost the access.

Go to the Below Url :

Actions --> Delete User

If this helps mark this answer.
