I know there is a better way to do it, the loop to assign permissions is getting the source permissions for every user i the array, and that isn't necessary, I am working out how to make it work though.

The value does not affect Windows Skip to main content. Each directory containing the exact same files. We tried the following robocopy commands:.
So we gave up and used icacls instead. With extensive testing and only two commands later, icacls successfully copied over all NTFS permissions. Notice that as part of the restore process we left out the last folder level with no back slash?
This is because this folder level is included in the ACL info file. I can edit the saved txt file and substitute the folder name I want to have the permissions. You are commenting using your WordPress.
