Try the following. //Add these namespaces to your page. using System.IO; using System.Security.AccessControl; using System.Security.Principal; //Put this code in either Page_Load or any other function string DirectoryName = @"C:\Test"; //Make sure the directory exists. string Account = @"Domain\username"; //Replace it with your Domain Name and User Name. DirectoryInfo dInfo = new DirectoryInfo(DirectoryName); DirectorySecurity dSecurity = dInfo.GetAccessControl(); dSecurity.AddAccessRule(new FileSystemAccessRule(Account, FileSystemRights.FullControl, AccessControlType.Allow)); dInfo.SetAccessControl(dSecurity); Hope it helps!
