Public Function RemoveAccessRule (rule As FileSystemAccessRule) As Boolean

Parameters

rule
FileSystemAccessRule

Returns

true if the access rule was removed; otherwise, false.

Examples

The following code example uses the FileSecurity class to add and then remove an access control list (ACL) entry from a file. You must supply a valid user or group account to run this example.

using System;
using System.IO;
using System.Security.AccessControl;

namespace FileSystemExample
{
    class FileExample
    {
        public static void Main()
        {
            try
            {
                string fileName = "test.xml";

                Console.WriteLine($"Adding access control entry for {fileName}");

                // Add the access control entry to the file.
                AddFileSecurity(fileName, @"DomainName\AccountName",
                    FileSystemRights.ReadData, AccessControlType.Allow);

                Console.WriteLine($"Removing access control entry from {fileName}");

                // Remove the access control entry from the file.
                RemoveFileSecurity(fileName, @"DomainName\AccountName",
                    FileSystemRights.ReadData, AccessControlType.Allow);

                Console.WriteLine("Done.");
            }
            catch (Exception e)
            {
                Console.WriteLine(e);
            }
        }

        // Adds an ACL entry on the specified file for the specified account.
        public static void AddFileSecurity(string fileName, string account,
            FileSystemRights rights, AccessControlType controlType)
        {

            FileSecurity fSecurity = fileInfo.GetAccessControl();

            // Add the FileSystemAccessRule to the security settings.
            fSecurity.AddAccessRule(new FileSystemAccessRule(account,
                rights, controlType));

            // Set the new access settings.
            fileInfo.SetAccessControl(fSecurity);
        }

        // Removes an ACL entry on the specified file for the specified account.
        public static void RemoveFileSecurity(string fileName, string account,
            FileSystemRights rights, AccessControlType controlType)
        {
            FileInfo fileInfo = new(fileName);
            FileSecurity fSecurity = fileInfo.GetAccessControl();

            // Remove the FileSystemAccessRule from the security settings.
            fSecurity.RemoveAccessRule(new FileSystemAccessRule(account,
                rights, controlType));

            // Set the new access settings.
            fileInfo.SetAccessControl(fSecurity);
        }

Remarks

The RemoveAccessRule method removes either all matching Deny access rules or all matching Allow access rules from the current FileSystemSecurity object. For example, you can use this method to remove all Deny access rules for a user by passing a FileSystemAccessRule object created using the Deny value, the Read value, and a user account. When you do this, the RemoveAccessRule method removes any deny rules that specify the Read value or the Write value.

Use the following .NET implementation-dependent methods to add or retrieve ACL information from a file:

.NET implementation Add rules Retrieve rules
.NET FileSystemAclExtensions.SetAccessControl(FileInfo, FileSecurity) FileSystemAclExtensions.GetAccessControl(FileInfo)
.NET Framework FileInfo.SetAccessControl(FileSecurity) FileInfo.GetAccessControl()

When you add an access rule without setting the Synchronize flag, the Synchronize flag will be automatically added to your rule. If you remove the rule later without specifying the Synchronize flag, the flag will automatically be removed.
