View Permissions

Janaka Sampath

I need to get full detail listing of folder permissions in my
File server. I want to view tree view of folder permission.
Is there any microsoft tool to view permissions in all folders at same time.

Thanks

on it or there is some another way.

It is generally a poor idea to run command line scripts
by double clicking them -- unless they merely perform
some action which you don't care to view.

If you do this (double click) then when the program
terminates, the window closes, and you will not be
able to view the results.

Instead: Open a command prompt (aka DOS window,
even if it isn't really). Run the program from the open
command prompt. You may need to change directory
to the location of the program if it is not in a directory
listed on the command path.

If there is much output (as this will likely generate) then
you are probably even better off if you redirect the output
to a text file so you can view it or save it for later.

commandName [any parameters] >c:\myresults.txt

The ">" symbol sends the output to that file -- you don't
have to put the file at the root of the C:\ as I have shown
but make sure you can recall where you sent it.

">> Append.txt" will do the same but instead of overwriting
an existing file will append the results to it.

Hi

I believe the script gives usage when you use it without switches. At a
command line:

cscript xcacls.vbs
