I have a collection of files inside of a folder and its subfolders. All of them are permissioned for Authenticated Users, SYSTEM, and Administrators, but only some of the files have the Users group permission. (Long story short, they were unexpectedly stripped of this group while moving them through a non-IE program.)
How can I add the Users group back to all of the files in these folders instead of going through manually one at a time? I cannot go via the top level folder's Properties\Security the way I expected because all of the folders do still contain the Users group, and I cannot delete-then-add it because the group is inherited.
(I found a few command line codes online, but they did not give enough basic info, and I feared testing them outright. I'm tired of seeing the locks next to every icon that this has caused.)
