You can just type 'cacls' and see the command help.

Example of usage:

cacls C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\mypublicfile.txt /E /G Guest:F

  • C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\mypublicfile.txt is the file, but we can also specify a folder
  • Guest is the user we want to give access
  • /E means we add to existing file security settings. Without /E, the system will delete everyone else's access.
  • /G must exists before user:access
  • F means full access, R means read, W means write

I got this info from this thread when trying to solve permission denied problem of my ASP script when trying to delete a file.

Happy coding!
