Answer 1

The following function will get a list of folders that have specific permissions set if that is what you need. (Warning, it can take a long time to run)

function Get-AclAccess {  
param ($folder='.', $outfile='aces.csv')  
  
   dir $folder -recurse | Where{$_.PSIsContainer} |  
   ForEach {get-acl $_.pspath}| ForEach {  
       $Path=$_.pspath  
       $_.access | Where {$_.IsInherited -eq $False} |  
       Add-Member -MemberType noteproperty -name path -value $path -passthru  
   } | Export-Csv $outfile -Notype  
}   

Answer 2

Or if you just want the folders. (Although this will also report on all subfolders in users home drives).
You may want to remove the -recurse attribute if all of the home drives are at the same level.

function Get-Folder {  
param ($folder='.', $outfile='folders.csv')  
  
   $results=@()   
  
   dir $folder -recurse | Where {$_.PSIsContainer} |  
   ForEach {  
        $props=@{Path=$_.FullName}  
        $results +=  New-Object -TypeName PSObject -property $props  
      
   }   
     
   $results | Export-Csv $outfile -NoTypeInformation  
  
}
