Permissions minus Complexity
Intuitive permission management with the power of SetACL. Less clicks, no more UAC prompts, increased productivity.
Intuitive
We put great care into the UI design, and it shows. Although permissions are complex, the user interface is not.
Productive
Five clicks just for setting the owner? UAC prompts everywhere? Those days are gone with SetACL Studio.
Powerful
Built on SetACL’s proven engine, SetACL Studio effortlessly bypasses security to show permissions of any object and deals with very long paths.
Undo
Normal programs have undo, admin tools do not. That is a rule, right? Wrong!
Local and remote computers
SetACL Studio works just as well over the network as it does locally. Connect to multiple computers simultaneously and easily switch from one to the other.
Permissions anywhere
SetACL Studio works with files, directories, registry keys, services, printers, network shares and WMI objects.
Create, delete and rename every directory and registry key – bypassing security
SetACL Studio not only lets you inspect any directory regardless of current permissions, it can also create, delete and rename directories anywhere. Whether you have roaming profile directories, normally inaccessible to administrators, or users “protecting” folders: SetACL Studio ignores ordinary restrictions and gives you the kind of access you need to do your work. Security bypassing works in the registry, too, for creating and deleting keys.
View, change and reset permissions and ownership
SetACL Studio lists permissions from the DACL and the SACL and displays the owner. DACL, SACL and owner can be changed for the current object and optionally sub-objects can be reset to get a consistent state.
Did we mention undo?
Everything else being great as it is, undo is the feature you do not want to live without from the moment you have used it for the first time. Of course it is multi-level, allowing you to go back step after step until you are back to where you want to be.

Fantastic program, just about to rebuy a new license, not idea if ne need renewing but well worth it.
As a side note your program has aske me to send you this error i keep on getting, when I try and reset owner permission.

An internal error occurred: ‘unknown propagation set ‘InheritOnly’. Please notify the program’s author.

No need to buy – SetACL Studio has been freeware for a while. You can find the license key to unlock it on the download page.
It seems you can’t bypass security entirely, even with setACL. For example the ‘HKLM/SYSTEM/WaaS/WaaSMedic/TaskStore’ key returns an acess denied error when you attempt to change anything.
