I am a former professional software developer (now a system admin) with an interest in everything that is about making hardware work. In the course of my work, I have programmed device drivers and services on Windows and linux.

I have written firmware for embedded devices in C and assembly language, and have designed and implemented real-time applications for testing of satellite payload equipment.

Generally, finding out how to interface hardware with software is my hobby and job.

Setting permissions on Win32 objects via C++ can be complex and it's not an 'obvious' process.
Luckily, Microsoft have provided a good and pretty concise set of documentation with examples.
Check it out: Defining Permissions with ACLs in C++ - Win32 apps | Microsoft Docs[^]

The code is clear, and the pages come with a lot of explanation and click-through links to relevant SDK documentation.
Aside from this link, you can read a lot more detail in 'Windows Internals' which I think every developer working on Windows can benefit from.
