Disable NTFS Permissions Inheritance

The following is the Powershell equivalent of unticking the box below for the folder “C:\temp”: $acl = get-acl "C:\temp" $acl.SetAccessRuleProtection($true,$true) $acl | set-acl Note that SetAccessRuleProtection takes two boolean arguments; the first turns inheritance on ($False) or off ($True) and the second determines whether the previously inherited permissions are retained ($True) or removed ($False).
