Modifying permissions

At the bottom of the search result screen is a tab that allows you to review and modify the Access Control List (ACL) of the selected directory or file. The ACL view corresponds to the Security tab in Windows’ file properties. Permission Analyzer in some cases will show more items in the ACL, as Windows does not show generic permissions. You will be able to only show Access Control Entries (ACE) that meet the filter criteria by ticking the checkbox “Apply filter on ACL list”. In addition the ACL tab toolbar contains a button to directly modify the selected ACE on the file system. Permission Analyzer uses the same Windows mechanisms as the Security tab. When modifying permission through Permission Analyzer, information in the database is updated immediately.
