Grand access for all users (with subfolders) like this:

DirectoryInfo dInfo;
DirectorySecurity dSecurity = dInfo.GetAccessControl();
dSecurity.AddAccessRule(new FileSystemAccessRule(new SecurityIdentifier(WellKnownSidType.WorldSid, null), FileSystemRights.FullControl, InheritanceFlags.ObjectInherit | InheritanceFlags.ContainerInherit, PropagationFlags.InheritOnly, AccessControlType.Allow));
dInfo.SetAccessControl(dSecurity);
