CACLS in Autoit

[Keniger]

Hi guys !

RunWait("cmd.exe /c " & "wmic USERACCOUNT get Name >"&@DesktopDir&"\users.txt",@ScriptDir,@SW_HIDE)

This little command save all users names on computer to file. Then ! I wrote script wich use that names to give permissions (Folders/Files)

$file0 = @DesktopDir & "\lol.txt"
$file = FileOpen("users.txt", 0)
$user1 = FileReadLine($file, 2)
RunWait("cmd.exe /c" & "cacls " & $file0 & " " & "/grant " & $user1 & ":(R)")
FileClose($file)

Wich should get this f**king permission to that file (R = only read and see)

If i write that command in cmd manually works -,- but in autoit nope... what is wrong here ?

This command in autoit looks like that :

cacls file_patch /grant user_name:® so what ... This should work but nope...

Sr for my english if bad xd

Are you sure the command is correct? Here (WIndows 7) the syntax (according to the help file) is:

RunWait("cmd.exe /c" & "cacls " & $file0 & " " & "/G " & $user1 & ":R")

I know what is going wrong ;x Command Prompt just run as normal user, cmd needs admin rights (Im on vista so...) Anyway, how can I run cmd as admin ;o ?

$user = "Administrator"
$pass = ""
RunAs($user, @ComputerName, $pass,0,@ComSpec & "/c " & "cacls C:\Users\marek\Desktop\lol.txt /grant marek:r")

This dont work ;x

Add

#RequireAdmin

at the top of your script and use Run to execute Cacls.

#RequireAdmin - Only run scirpt as admin not cmd ;x Edited March 5, 2013 by Keniger

Did you try what Water suggested? Did it not work?

[water]

If you try something and it doesn't work, please don't post "it doesn't work" but the return value of the function in error and the value of @error and @extended.

Ye, cmd runs with admin but its only illusion because command dont work right...

If I run CMD : Start > Acessories > Command Prompt > PPM Run As Admin Command work... Idk what is going on ;x
