File Structure must be:
1st postition: Object Level (Possible Values: Class(C) or Instance (I))
2nd postition: Object Type (COLLECTION, ADVERTISEMENT, PACKAGE, ...)
3rd postition: Object Name (If Object Level is Class, the Name is not used. Best value in this case is "N/A")
4th postition: Username (Format: domain\username)
5th postition: Permissons (Format: Permisson1&Permisson2&...) - For all Permissons on an Object use keyword "FULL". Check the lower part of the vbScript for detailed information. Also note that the permissons have to make sense. So please first check the available permissons for each object in your ConfigMgr Console
# are and blank lines are ignored
# are available for comments
The SetPermissons.txt file should look like this:
