The permissions are obviously inherited through subfolders as well. The bug you are linking to doesn't even seem to be reproducible, and seems to indicate that the cacls tool was used against the Windows folder and not the Freenet folder. As p0s points out, the permissions appeared to be replaced instead of edited. I'd like some actual evidence if you want to claim that file permission inheritance is broken in Windows. Otherwise, I'll assume that you have acknowledged that file permissions can inherited just fine. - Zero3
