Prevent Users Adding Folders but Allow to Add Files

$

Hello, 

I am trying to prevent users from adding folders to a drive so they are forced to put their files in the proper folders made for them. I have tried to prevent the making of folders by going onto the server and changing properties of these folders. More specifically I went into the security and selected the groups or usernames and edited the permissions. I tried to deny "Write" but users were not able to add files to the folders already made. 

I then tried to go to Advance under the folder's properties and under security. There I disabled the inheritance to allow me to make changes and I changed the advance permissions to allow everything except for "Create folders/ append data". After pressing OK through all the screens and resetting the user’s computer I found that the user could still make folders. It appears that regardless of my changes in the advance permission nothing changes. 

Could anyone help me out with this problem?
