Reset Files and Folders Permission on Windows

I often used windows permission to limit other user on the same PC to access application/Folder/File. But after the real owner of the file is resign, i had to change those files/folders permission to original or directly change to current user.

So if you need to reset file/folder permission setting to default, you can use command below:

ICACLS (Folder or File name) /T /Q /C /RESET

example:

D:\OILDATA>ICACLS IVAN /T /Q /C /RESET

Above command will help you to accomplish your need.
