Appling SharePoint inheritance to multiple items [PowerShell]

[Tom_P]

Hi, (Originally posted in Cloud Services, but thought it may be better here as I'm trying to rectify the issue by using PowerShell)

 

I have an issue where when I migrated data from our file server into SharePoint it didnt copy the permissions across correctly.

 

I have now been asked to remove all permissions from the folders/files and give all users of a particular team read/write access. So i thought the best way of doing this was apply the permissions at the room and have all subfolders/files inherit these permissions..I've followed this https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/sharepoint/sharepoint-how-to-reset-inheritance-permission-set-into-an-sp/m-p/1780387

 

However it doesn't finish.. It starts searching items and once all items are found it does nothing. Just displays the total number of items.

 

How do i do this? Am i in the right place with the above link or is there another way of doing this?
