Microsoft doesn’t give you any tools to easily manage permissions in SharePoint Server 2010. Fortunately, CodePlex offers a free tool called Permissions Manager 2010. However, because it’s open source code, there are no clear instructions for installing or configuring this tool on their site. I thought I will document the steps here for your benefit.<\/p>\n

Here are the instructions for installing CodePlex’s Permissions Manager 2010 in SharePoint Server 2010.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Download Permissions Manager 2010 from http:\/\/permissionsmanager.codeplex.com\/.<\/li>\n
  2. Create a folder where you will download the tool. For example, C:\\PM.<\/li>\n
  3. Copy the downloaded PermissionsManager2010.wsp file to the C:\\PM folder.<\/li>\n
  4. Start Windows PowerShell ISE and run the following command to add the solution:
    \nAdd-SPSolution “C:\\PM\\permissionsmanager2010.wsp”<\/li>\n
  5. Run the following command to install the solution:
    \nInstall-SPSolution -identity “permissionsmanager2010.wsp” \u2013GACdeployment
    \n(Note: You must add GACdeployment switch at the end)<\/li>\n
  6. Go to Central Administration – > Application Management -> Web Applications -> Mange web applications.<\/li>\n
  7. Select the Web application (e.g. Intranet) and on the Web Applications tab click Manage Features. Notice the Permissions Manager 2010 entry that is activated.
    \n\"\"<\/a><\/li>\n
  8. Go to your intranet site and select\u00a0Site Actions, Site Settings. (Note: you need to go to your site, not to Central Administration).<\/li>\n
  9. Click on the Permissions Manager 2010 under Users and Permissions.
    \n    \"\"<\/a><\/li>\n
  10. Now you can manage permissions in SharePoint Server 2010 using this tool.
    \n    \"\"<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
