Hello swain fighters :-)
I accept saved this clarification of how to reset some of the Windows Permissions to the default values for educational purposes, now I'm gonna share it for the same reason.
IF you are going to attemt this procedure, I want you lot to utilise system restore by opening a elevated command prompt, and type: systempropertiesprotection
When yous practise this step, the system properties window volition open up, and at the lesser, there is a pick that is asking y'all to create a restore betoken on the disk that supports this action.
Click CREATE, Choose a name for the restore point, and click CREATE once more then you are done when the loading finishes.
Now.
I hope You lot take your organisation seriously. If you choose to not take a backup of your system as described higher up, and you go along with the post-obit instructions, that's your call..
1. Download subinacl.msi from the following link, and save it on the desktop:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=e8ba3e56-d8fe-4a91-93cf-ed6985e3927b&displaylang=en#AffinityDownloads (http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=e8ba3e56-d8fe-4a91-93cf-ed6985e3927b&displaylang=en#AffinityDownloads)
two. On the desktop, double-click subinacl.msi to install the tool.
3. Select C:\Windows\System32 equally the destination folder.
Note: This step assumes that Windows is installed in C:\Windows. If Windows is installed elsewhere, select the appropriate path to .\System32.
Are you With me and then far? This is the installation of the Windows native tool to alter permissions of whole areas at the time, instead of 1-by-ane folders/files ...
The side by side instructions will able yous to create a script compatible with the installed SUBINACL, you can edit this entries as y'all delight if you are experienced:
four. Open Notepad.
v. Copy the following commands and then paste them into the opened Notepad window:
subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE /grant=administrators=f
subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_CURRENT_USER /grant=administrators=f
subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT /grant=administrators=f
subinacl /subdirectories %SystemDrive% /grant=administrators=f
subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE /grant=organisation=f
subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_CURRENT_USER /grant=arrangement=f
subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT /grant=organization=f
subinacl /subdirectories %SystemDrive% /grant=system=f
vi. In Notepad click File, Salve Equally, and then type: reset.cmd
7. In Notepad click Save as type, and then select All Files (*.*).
viii. Salvage the reset.cmd-file to your desktop, and close Notepad.
9. Double-click the reset.cmd-file to reset the Windows Update permissions.
10. Press any central to consummate the installation.
Then, my friends, install this program that helps you lot get a overview of all your systems permissions:
one. http://download.sysinternals.com/files/AccessEnum.nix
ii. UNZIP TO Any LOCATION
3. RUN ACCESSENUM.EXE
There yous take total control over your computer and arrangement permissions, if you lot ran the script in the instructions, y'all should be able to locate the permissions of whatever searched folder.
Only gathering useful resources here guys, y'all may become through this instructions differently based on experience, but e'er keep in listen to take a system backup, that is never a bad thought

@Myles,
I had the aforementioned trouble just I figured information technology out. The subinacl.msi package is not actually copying the subinacl.exe file to the c:\windows\system32 folder when you run it. What I ended up doing was reinstalling subinacl, this time installing it to another binder (in my case the desktop). It extracts 3 files. Then I copied the files over to the system32 folder manually and it worked!

1. Download subinacl.msi from the following link, and relieve it on the desktop:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=e8ba3e56-d8fe-4a91-93cf-ed6985e3927b&displaylang=en#AffinityDownloads (http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=e8ba3e56-d8fe-4a91-93cf-ed6985e3927b&displaylang=en#AffinityDownloads)
If the above link has bug there is a second link
There is a new link for this http://www.microsoft.com/en-the states/download/details.aspx?id=23510#AffinityDownloads
Or you lot can seek on the Knowledge Base of operations ... http://support.microsoft.com/kb/313222
Tis article is for windows vista but i works also for windows 7.
Just run in a evalated prompt the post-obit command.
For windows 7 just use secedit /configure /cfg %windir%\inf\defltbase.inf /db defltbase.sdb /verbose

@ genistas & @Myles
Corking!
The steps were written every bit I did the whole procedure myself, so this problem may be occurring when your UAC is activated, while mine was not.

Hi. I saw this thread and wondered if this would help my problem. A few days ago, I began noticing a problem with transfering files to another location. I had pictures that I renamed and placed into my pictures folder. When I tried to back up the pictures to my NAS, the files were inaccessible. I checked the files and they were locked in the sense that I could non copy, move, delete or rename the file. I that the files affected lost their security properties (No groups or users have permission to access this object). I institute that if I changed the security profile of the binder or file (right click, properties, security, edit, and put in "system" and my username), I will gain access. I am at a loss as to why this is happening with file movement. At present I have to reset all the settings in each folder for every file that can't exist backed up. I am hoping to reset the security settings back to default so that I tin become the files copied easily. Volition this plan work for my trouble? I have a Win 7 computer 64bit. Cheers.

@Curious D
That you describe is most probable caused by the excisting permissions on the hard-drive,
or information technology may be a faulty hard drive in either finish of the file transfer.
This particular problem often occur if some update is practical, and then the power to the computer is cut off of a sudden, and so it's just an incomplete file transfer.
The permissions is described by the SACL for each file, "Arrangement Access Command List", and sometimes this is non transferred completely with the files.
A possible solution is to bank check that the permissions for the actual Difficult-drive is inherited by files that is transferred to information technology:
Right-click C:/D:/G: -> Properties(menuitem) -> Security(tab) -> Advanced(Button) -> permissions(tab) -> change permissions(push button) -> Set Total Command for admins, yourself and organization, & read/write for "Users" -> Check "Replace all child object permissions with inheritable......." -> Click Use(button) -> OK->OK->OK
Done :-)
If this does not help, something is incorrect with hard-drives, or you have some kind of malware lurking..

Thank you for the answer.
I tried to change the root folder so that I don't take to change the subfolders, but I go this fault in applying the settings with a "The access control list (ACL) structure is invalid" message. So all the subfolders have a padlock on them and I take to become to all the affected folders and reset the security permission. If I motion a file into a folder that does not take the security settings (ie no grouping has permission to access files), the files lose the security settings that they had before beingness moved. Is in that location another fashion to reset all of the permission? Is the method described in this thread a way to become all folders and subfolders right if simply changing the drive security setting isn't working?

@Curious D
This line in the script does the settings on your organization drive:
subinacl /subdirectories %SystemDrive% /grant=administrators=f
Just change %SystemDrive% to be your NAS drive letter, and "administrators" can be changed to your own username on the computer.
To lose the padlock from files and folders, you take to grant the group "Users" read/write permissions.
Is the method described in this thread a way to get all folders and subfolders right if simply changing the drive security setting isn't working?
The method described does non include every hard-drive on your computer, you lot have to create new lines that includes the other drive messages.
%SystemDrive% for example only means in most cases your C: drive, environment variables defines that. Simply basically yep.
You should as well make certain that you are the owner of the secondary deejay. NB!! Do non accept ownership over %SystemDrive%!

Here you have lines for the script to ready the default owner on Program Files folders:
subinacl /subdirectories %SystemDrive%\Program Files /setowner=NT SERVICE\TrustedInstaller /grant=NT SERVICE\TrustedInstaller=f
subinacl /subdirectories %SystemDrive%\Program Files (x86) /setowner=NT SERVICE\TrustedInstaller /grant=NT SERVICE\TrustedInstaller=f
/grant=[DomainName\]User[=Admission] will add together a Permission Ace for the user. if Admission is not specified, the Total Control access will be granted. File: F : Total Control C : Alter R : Read P : Change Permissions O : Take Ownership X : eXecute E : Read eXecute Due west : Write D : Delete ClusterShare: F : Full Control R : Read C : Change Printer: F : Full Control Thousand : Manage Documents P : Print KeyReg: F : Full Control R : Read A : ReAd Control Q : Query Value S : Set Value C : Create SubKey E : Enumerate Subkeys Y : NotifY 50 : Create Link D : Delete Westward : Write DAC O : Write Owner Service: F : Full Control R : Generic Read W : Generic Write X : Generic eXecute 50 : Read control Q : Query Service Configuration S : Query Service Condition Eastward : Enumerate Dependent Services C : Service Change Configuration T : Start Service O : End Service P : Pause/Continue Service I : Interrogate Service U : Service User-Defined Control Commands Share: F : Total Command R : Read C : Alter Metabase: F : Full Command R : Read - MD_ACR_READ W : Write - MD_ACR_WRITE I : Restricted Write - MD_ACR_RESTRICTED_WRITE U : Unsecure props read - MD_ACR_UNSECURE_PROPS_READ E : Enum keys- MD_ACR_ENUM_KEYS D : write Dac- MD_ACR_WRITE_DAC Procedure: F : Full Control R : Read W : Write X : eXecute SamObject: F : Full Control W : Write R : Read X : Execute

Ok I followed this procedure to the letter. Information technology's not my kickoff rodeo with cmd files or batch files. The problem is when I run the cmd file the control prompt appears and immediately disappears. Nada has been inverse considering I still accept a zillion screwed up permissions interfering with my need to delete a file. Then my question is what am I doing wrong or what is wrong with the install on my computer? Thank you Jerry

Jerryh3. Place a pause at the end of your batch file and see if you see the mistake now.
If not salvage as a new file "test" and add only one line and run it to see if part of information technology work and progress from there.

Start of all, let me say that this is Groovy! And thank you very much. It withal does not quite aid me but we are on the right rail.
I'm trying to open some PDFs. I become "access denied" and I'm at present assuming that it is because I copied the files from ane bulldoze to another and probably lost permissions in the process. Make sense?
After I run this script and practice the scan as suggested I see that some of the folders are marked "Access is Denied" nether the Read column. When I try to open the file with Adobe I go "access denied". When I alter the security to add together "Everyone" with "Full Access" I am able to open the file.
O.K. So how could I run the script to allow full access to "Everyone", in so far as that volition non break the system for some files.
Thoughts?

Oh, and while you are mulling that one over 
I take another trouble. When I effort to update Windows some of the updates E'er neglect. They give a bulletin about a resource not being constitute and present a popup box allowing me to say where a CD is located. I recall they are looking for an installation CD but I don't have one. This is a modern system that came with no disks. I recollect the near common failure is on updates to C++. Is this besides some kind of permission trouble? Or is it something else altogether?
Thanks again.
