File/Folder Permissions

I have a hard drive that used Windows XP. I currently wanted to import a
large amount of files from that hard drive into my internal hard drive that
uses Windows Vista. In order for me to use it, I have to set the permissions
for each folder and file that I have imported. Is there any way to set all of
these permissions at once?

sure
Google "Vista takeown"

In addition to taking ownership, you need to change permissions with icacls

I'm not sure the previous link included how to do that...
