Hello,
Can cacls.exe be used to change a registry permission? It's been suggested
to me to use this tool but I'm not having any luck using it on a registry
key.
Can anyone help?

I need to change the permissions for a key under HKLM\SOFTWARE\MyCompany for
the group machine\Users.

There's a whole bunch of info on it if you type cacls.exe into Google.

Thanks WTC. I guess I should have been more clear. I need to do it
programmatically and someone had mentioned cacls.exe to me but I'm not
seeing how it can edit a registry key permission. I was hoping if someone
knew how to do that they could help me with it.
