Setting multiple files permissions

[Guest]

How can I set pemissions for more than 1 file? When I select several files
and open their properties I can't see "Security" tab. I know that I can set
permissions on folder level, but sometimes it's not very convenient.

Hello,

You can do so using the icacls command-line tool when using an elevated
command prompt.

To open an elevated command prompt:

- Click start
- Type: cmd
- Right-click cmd when it shows up under programs
- Click Run As Administrator

The icacls tool takes a bit of getting used to. Here's an example command
line:

icalcs *.txt /grant JimmyF)

Grants the user Jimmy full control over all text files in the current
directory.
