I need a utility or a way or something to change a whole crapload of ntfs permissions at once to an entire directory, including files and folders. I want to make a change in one spot and have it replicated through the entire folder ... I also need to take permission of each file and folder as well. I'm looking for a way to do this manually. Is there a utility out there that can do this? Thanks..

Just go to the top level folder, tell windows to apply the setting to all the subfolders, then change your settings. No extra tool required.

Note that this may very well take a while...
