• Set-Acl (Microsoft.PowerShell.Security) - PowerShell

  

  The Set-Acl cmdlet changes the security descriptor of a specified item, such as a file or a registry key, to match the values in a security descriptor that you supply. To use Set-Acl, use the Path or InputObject parameter to identify the item whose security descriptor you want to change. Then, use the AclObject or SecurityDescriptor parameters to supply a security descriptor that has the values you want to apply. Set-Acl applies the security descriptor that is supplied. It uses the value of the AclObject parameter as a model and changes the values in the item's security descriptor to match the values in the AclObject parameter.
