10.2k Views Asked by At

I'm trying this below. Than read, write & execute permission can stop, but file rename I can't stop with this command.

CACLS files /e /p {USERNAME}:{PERMISSION}

Where,

  • /p : Set new permission

  • /e : Edit permission and kept old permission as it is i.e. edit ACL instead of replacing it.

  • {USERNAME} : Name of user

  • {PERMISSION} : Permission can be:

    • R - Read

    • W - Write

    • C - Change (write)

    • F - Full control

For example grant Rocky Full (F) control with following command (type at Windows command prompt):

C:> CACLS files /e /p rocky:f

Read complete help by typing the following command:

C:> cacls /?
