Changing Access Permissions on a Shared View Using the Command Prompt

To change access permissions on a shared view using the command prompt:

Log in to the system as a user with local administrative permissions.
Open a command prompt and go to the parent folder containing the vault view, for example, cd C:\.
Use the cacls command to assign sufficient access control to the user and power user groups.
```
CACLS "<vault_view_name>" /E /G "<group/username>":F
```
For example, to grant the local users group sufficient access control:
```
CACLS "c:\PDMWE File Vault" /E /G "users":F
```
Microsoft Knowledge Base article 162786 provides more information about cacls http://support.microsoft.com/kb/162786/EN-US/.
