using cacls to modify permission


Recommended Posts

I am trying to modify permissions of a specific file or files and getting an

error of invalid arguments.

 

cacls "%SystemRoot%\Inf\Usbstor.pnf" /t /e /c /g "DOMAIN\DOMAIN USERS":D

 

I'm entering that into the command prompt. I also used "c:\windows" in place

of systemroot. Also tried with or without quotes.

Here are the options for the /G switch:

/G user:perm Grant specified user access rights.

Perm can be: R Read

W Write

C Change (write)

F Full control

It's R, W, C or F. There is no "D"!
