Upgrade Instructions

If switching from Carbon, the Get-CPermission, Grant-CPermission, Revoke-CPermission, and Test-CPermission functions were migrated to the following provider-specific modules with the following function names:

Carbon.FileSystem:

• Get-CNtfsPermission
• Grant-CNtfsPermission
• Revoke-CNtfsPermission
• Test-CNtfsPermission

Carbon.Registry:

• Get-CRegistryPermission
• Grant-CRegistryPermission
• Revoke-CRegistryPermission

Carbon.Cryptography:

• Get-CPrivateKey
• Get-CPrivateKeyPermission
• Grant-CPrivateKeyPermission
• Resolve-CPrivateKeyPath
• Revoke-CPrivateKeyPermission

Added

• Function Get-CAcl to get the access control (i.e. security descriptor) for a registry key, file, or directory. Supports getting only specific sections/parts of the security descriptor, too. Works across PowerShell editions.
• Function Get-CPrivilege (migrated from Carbon), which gets a user/group's rights/privileges.
• Function Grant-CPrivilege (migrated from Carbon), which grants a user/group rights/privileges.
• Function Revoke-CPrivilege (migrated from Carbon), which removes a user/group's rights/privileges.
• Function Test-CPrivilege (migrated from Carbon), which tests a user/group's rights/privileges.
• Function Test-CPrivilegeName, which tests if rights/privileges are supported on the current operating system.

Changed

• The Privilege parameters on the Grant-CPrivilege and Revoke-CPrivilege functions are now case-insensitive.
