takeown-capturing files or folder ownership

Force change the owner of all files and folders, subfolders under the current directory to the Administrators group (administrators) command:

TAKEOWN/F */A/R/D y

Modify the NTFS permissions for files and subfolders in all d:documents directories to only the Administrators group (administrators) Full Control (delete all existing NTFS permission settings):

cacls d:documents*.*/t/g Administrators:f

Add the Administrators group (administrators) Full Control permission on the NTFS permissions of files and subfolders in the original d:documents directory (do not delete all NTFS permission settings):

cacls d:documents*.*/t/e/g administrators:f

Remove Full Control permissions for the Administrators group (administrators) (Do not delete all NTFS permission settings):

cacls serverdocuments%username% My Documents/T/E/R "Mddqdomain admins"

cacls serverdocuments%username% Desktop/t/e/r "Mddqdomain admins"

With these two commands, you can achieve bulk capture of folders, file owner permissions, and the ability to add full control to the Administrators group.
