Export NTFS Folder Permissions Recursively:
This script will export NTFS folder permissions recursively for a given folder and its subfolders into a CSV file.

# Define the folder path
$folderPath = “C:\Path\To\Folder”

# Get ACLs recursively for the folder and its subfolders
$acls = Get-ChildItem -Path $folderPath -Recurse | Get-Acl

# Initialize an empty array to store the results
$results = @()

# Iterate through each ACL
foreach ($acl in $acls) {
foreach ($access in $acl.Access) {
# Create a custom object for each access rule
$result = [PSCustomObject]@{
‘Folder’ = $acl.Path
‘User’ = $access.IdentityReference
‘Permissions’ = $access.FileSystemRights
‘Inheritance’ = $access.IsInherited
}
$results += $result
}
}

# Export the results to a CSV file
$results | Export-Csv -Path “NTFS_Permissions.csv” -NoTypeInformation

Export NTFS Folder Permissions for a Single Folder:

If you only want to export permissions for a single folder (without recursion), you can simplify the script by directly getting the ACL for that folder.

# Define the folder path
$folderPath = “C:\Path\To\Folder”

# Get the ACL for the folder
$acl = Get-Acl -Path $folderPath

# Initialize an empty array to store the results
$results = @()

# Iterate through each access rule
foreach ($access in $acl.Access) {
# Create a custom object for each access rule
$result = [PSCustomObject]@{
‘Folder’ = $folderPath
‘User’ = $access.IdentityReference
‘Permissions’ = $access.FileSystemRights
‘Inheritance’ = $access.IsInherited
}
$results += $result
}

# Export the results to a CSV file
$results | Export-Csv -Path “NTFS_Permissions.csv” -NoTypeInformation

Both scripts will export the folder path, user, permissions, and whether the permission is inherited or not into a CSV file named “NTFS_Permissions.csv”. You can adjust the $folderPath variable to point to the desired folder you want to export permissions for.
