File Owner

[LurchMan]

Hey everyone -

I was doing a search across the forum and couldn't find an easy solution to getting the owner of a file without using Dir /q and without using external apps. The credit for this little script goes to Tech Net: (http://gallery.technet.microsoft.com/scr...ter/7808f37b-30ca-4c76-a003-66). I just modified it to make it work with AutoIt. Also, UNC pathing doesn't work with this, you have to have a drive letter.

Func _GetOwner ($sFilePath)
  Local $objSD
  $objWMIService = ObjGet("winmgmts:")
  $objFileSecuritySettings = _
  $objWMIService.Get("Win32_LogicalFileSecuritySetting='" & $sFilePath & "'")
  $intRetVal = $objFileSecuritySettings.GetSecurityDescriptor($objSD)

  If $intRetVal = 0 Then
    Return $objSD.Owner.Domain & "" & $objSD.Owner.Name
  Else
    Return -1
  EndIf
EndFunc
