                    permissions,
                    access_mode='grant',
                    applies_to=None,
                    obj_type='file',

                    protected=None):
    '''
    Set the permissions of an object. This can be a file, folder, registry key,
    printer, service, etc...

    Args:

        obj_name (str):
            The object for which to set permissions. This can be the path to a
            file or folder, a registry key, printer, etc. For more information
            about how to format the name see:

            https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/aa379593(v=vs.85).aspx

        principal (str):
            The name of the user or group for which to set permissions. Can also
            pass a SID.

        permissions (str, list):
            The type of permissions to grant/deny the user. Can be one of the
            basic permissions, or a list of advanced permissions.

        access_mode (Optional[str]):
            Whether to grant or deny user the access. Valid options are:

            - grant (default): Grants the user access
            - deny: Denies the user access

        applies_to (Optional[str]):
            The objects to which these permissions will apply. Not all these
            options apply to all object types. Defaults to
            'this_folder_subfolders_files'

        obj_type (Optional[str]):
            The type of object for which to set permissions. Default is 'file'

        reset_perms (Optional[bool]):
            True will overwrite the permissions on the specified object. False
            will append the permissions. Default is False

        protected (Optional[bool]):
            True will disable inheritance for the object. False will enable
            inheritance. None will make no change. Default is None.

    Returns:
        bool: True if successful, raises an error otherwise

    Usage:

    .. code-block:: python

        salt.utils.win_dacl.set_permissions(
            'C:\\Temp', 'jsnuffy', 'full_control', 'grant')
    '''
    # Set up applies_to defaults used by registry and file types
    if applies_to is None:
        if 'registry' in obj_type.lower():
            applies_to = 'this_key_subkeys'
        elif obj_type.lower() == 'file':
            applies_to = 'this_folder_subfolders_files'

    # If you don't pass `obj_name` it will create a blank DACL
    # Otherwise, it will grab the existing DACL and add to it
    if reset_perms:
        obj_dacl = dacl(obj_type=obj_type)
    else:
        obj_dacl = dacl(obj_name, obj_type)
        obj_dacl.rm_ace(principal, access_mode)

    obj_dacl.add_ace(principal, access_mode, permissions, applies_to)

    obj_dacl.order_acl()

    obj_dacl.save(obj_name, protected)

    return True
