Included Paths
A Permissions Reporter project allows you to define which portions of the file system are targeted for permissions reporting.
Permissions Reporter supports a wide range of folders, including:
- Local drives (i.e. "c:\")
- Local folders (i.e. "c:\program files")
- Network paths (i.e. "\\server\share\folder")
Adding a Folder
Click the Add Folder button to add a file system path. The resulting pop-up window provides three means of adding folders to the project:
- Add a single folder - Browse for a local or network file system path, or enter one directly by typing it in. You can also use environmental variables (such as %LOCALAPPDATA%) within the paths, and they will be resolved when the scan executes.
- Import folder list from a text file - Allows you to import a list of file system paths from a text file. The text file should contain a list of paths to be imported, each on a separate line.
- Discover shares - Provides a means of listing shares on one or more computers or domains (separate multiple entries with a comma).
Removing Folders
Select one or more folder paths (hold the CTRL key down to select multiple entries) and click the Remove Selected button to remove them.
Tip: If you uncheck and entry in the folder list, it will be ignored during permissions report generation. This provides an easy way to disable a folder path without removing it.
