How can you set file permissions and folder permissions and hopefully all files/folders ina tree recursively with NSIS?

How about System plugin with SetFileAttributes (http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/fileio/base/setfileattributes.asp) .

As KichiK mentioned in a previous post there is a powerful command line tool called SetACL. You can find it here:

http://setacl.sourceforge.net/

I used it several times and it worked very well.

Remember that you need admin privilegues to use it!!!
