    I want to grant permission to sub folders and files from parent using command.


    I want to grant permission to sub folders and files from parent using command.

    I tried to this command:


    ICACLS "file or folder" /grant Everyone /t


    This commands can grant permission to sub folders and files to 'Everyone' user.

    But it is not I want.


    Parent folder can be accessed by the following users:

    IUSR

    SYSTEM

    and so on...


    I want to inherit all users who have access to the parent folder to the subfolders or files.

    In other words, ICACLS "file or folder" /grant All Users with access to the parent folder /t


    Is it possible?

    Please help me~

    :)

    Copy folder and retaining permissions of sub folders

    Hi

    We have a system where to open a job, we copy a template folder which in itself has sub folders. In it there is a sub-folder where not everyone is allowed to see.

    When we copy the template and paste it to create job, all permissions set in the template sub folders are changed to that of parent folder. maybe this example can help.

    Template

    Folder 1 (exclusive permissions)

    Folder 2 (same as parent permissions

    Copy and Paste Template Folder

    Folder 1 (now takes same as parent permissions)

    Folder 2 (same as parent permissions

    DIR of folders & sub-folders in WIN 10

    Hi Bob,

    Open Command Prompt, navigate to the parent folder (Your Music fioder) and run this command

    dir /s /b /o:n /ad > List.txt

    A new text file will be created in the parent folder with a list of all sub folders, but not the mp3 files

    That's It!

    Folder Permissions not working on some folders

    As found in this ServerFault answer, try with the following steps to change ownership and permission on many files and folders in one batch from command line:

    • Open a Command Prompt "As Administrator"
    • Run the following commands:

    takeown /f YourDrive:\YourFolder /r /d y

    icacls YourDrive:\YourFolder /grant administrators:F /T

    HTH
