asked on a command promt tool to modify permission on large number of folders using variables and batch file
This is windows 2003 file share server ; hosting the personal folder for all users. need to clean up the permission on all users using a command prompt to save time ; so NTFS permission is full control for domainadmins and modify for the %username% on their folders and subfolders

Without additional code, how does line 2 take care of your request to "...modify for the %username% on their folders and subfolders"?

also existing permissions remain since you did not remove inheritance from the parent folder(s)
cacls (foldername) /e /T /p SYSTEM:f (will grant system full control over username folder)
icacls (foldername) /grant:r e-academy\username:(OI)(CI
username and foldername have the same name
I did not test the solutions above , but will give points to each equally
