A while back I enabled file auditing on a few folders on my Windows 7 machine, but I have forgotten which folders I enabled it on. Is there any way to view a list of all the folders which have at least one auditing permission turned on?

The audit log appears in the Security log in Event Viewer. To enable this feature:

  • Click Start, click Control Panel, and then click Administrative Tools.

  • Double-click Local Security Policy

  • In the left pane, double-click Local Policies to expand it

  • In the left pane, click Audit Policy to display the individual policy settings in the right pane.

  • Double-click Audit object access.

  • To audit successful access of specified files, folders and printers, select the Success check box.

  • To audit unsuccessful access to these objects, select the Failure check box.

  • To enable auditing of both, select both check boxes.

  • Click OK.

  • This is not what I am asking. I know how to enable auditing; I am asking if there is a way to show folders that have auditing permissions already enabled on them. – mightyteegar Jun 24 '15 at 20:39
