VB sets permissions on development machine but not client machine
I use the following code (which I found on another post) to add "write" rights to the "user" account on a folder and it works perfectly on my development machine. However, when I deploy it to a client machine nothing happens. I don't get an error of any type it just doesn't change the permissions of the folder..
Sub SetAllPermissions()
Dim sFolderPath As String = Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.CommonApplicationData) & "LTi"
Dim sUserAccount As String = "Users"
Dim oFolderInfo As IO.DirectoryInfo = New IO.DirectoryInfo(sFolderPath)
Dim oFolderAcl As New DirectorySecurity(sFolderPath, System.Security.AccessControl.AccessControlSections.Access)
oFolderAcl.AddAccessRule(New FileSystemAccessRule(sUserAccount,
FileSystemRights.Write,
InheritanceFlags.ContainerInherit Or InheritanceFlags.ObjectInherit, PropagationFlags.InheritOnly,
AccessControlType.Allow))
oFolderInfo.SetAccessControl(oFolderAcl)
oFolderAcl = Nothing
oFolderInfo = Nothing
MsgBox("Done")
End Sub
permissions directory-security
