Managing permissions with PowerShell is only a bit easier than in VBS or the command line as there are no cmdlets for most day-to-day tasks like getting a permission report or adding permission to an item. PowerShell only offers Get-Acl and Set-Acl but everything in between getting and setting the ACL is missing. This module closes the gap.

Downloaded NTFSSecurity-master.zip today, "unblocked" the files in the permissions tab, extracted zipped folder, created "NTFSSecurity" folder within C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\Modules, copied all files extracted from the zipped folder into the NTFSSecurity folder, launched PowerShell x64 as admin, ran "Import-Module NTFSSecurity" and i get the following error: import-module : The specified module 'ntfssecurity' was not loaded because no valid module file was found in any module directory. I replicated this issue on another machine following the same steps. This is running Windows 10 with PowerShell 5.
