When you click the button ‘Grant Permissions’ in the Permission screen of a site you always get the option to insert a user inside a SharePoint group. Most of the time there are some groups listed that are not applicable. But we can do something about that.

Go to the Site Settings of your website
Click ‘People and groups’
Click on the ‘More…’ link in the Quick Launch in the Groups section
Click ‘Settings’
Click ‘Edit Group Quick Launch’
