I am following along with the webcast from Oct 10, 2019. I am having issue with the permissions portion.

When I type the following, I dont have the option for New

[System.Security.AccessControl.FileSystemAccessRule]::(

Any ideas why?

This is the error message:

Method invocation failed because [System.Security.AccessControl.FileSystemAccessRule] does not contain a
method named 'new'.

Ah, you need an = after $newrule.

$newrule = [System.Security.AccessControl.FileSystemAccessRule]::new(

still the same, maybe its a PS Version issue? It works on another machine with PSVersion 5...

I downloaded NTFSSecurity and getting better results.
