Hi All,
Please help as this is really bugging me, as well as taking loads of my time.
I have a directory which has 500 user directories within it, each containing profile data etc. The permissions are set such that the administrator doesnt have any access and the only person with access is the user themselves. What I want to do is add the local administrator account to all folders and subfolders with full permissions.
I Dont think I can do it in the windows GUI that easily?
So I've tried to use XCACLS:
xcacls foldername /T /E /G administrators:F
All I get every time is 'Access Denied'. I've got it to add the administrator to one folder, but its leaving all the subfolders untouched with Access Denied Errors. Cant be that hard surely?
Help appreciated
Thx in advance
