Im trying to add the group Everyone and give it modify permissions on a folder. Im using a batch file to try this. so for I have icacls "C:\Program Files (x86)\Program File" /grant:r Everyone:M
But when I go and look at the permissions on the folder nothing has been changed.
476
To modify the permission flags on existing files and directories, use the chmod command ("change mode"). It can be used for individual files or it can be run recursively with the -R option to change permissions for all of the subdirectories and files within a directory.
The chmod command enables you to change the permissions on a file. You must be superuser or the owner of a file or directory to change its permissions.
No need to put :r after /grant. Check the examples by typing icacls /?
Do like this:
icacls "C:\Program Files (x86)\Program File" /grant Everyone:M
