Script or program to make NTFS storage permissions report

I would like a script or program where I could specify a server and a top level share and the script will walk the entire structure including all sub directories and will generate a report as a.csv file with the information and format shown in the attached screen shot. I only want explicit permissions shown, not inherited permissions.
This doesn't have to be PowerShell. It could be .vbs or other language. I just need to get the output in the format I'm looking for.

If you don't find something in PowerShell, I have created something in .Net lately : https://www.emoreau.com/Entries/Articles/2018/04/Using-a-Net-application-to-query-folders-permissions.aspx

Hi Éric,

I am not a .Net programmer. I visited the page you linked but I don't know how to turn that into an executable or something I can run.

Can you give me some idea about that?

A programmer told me to use Visual Studio Code but I see several files in the extracted folders that VS Code could open.

Thanks,
Don

Our .NET/C# programmer here was able to make the .exe that makes a text file, which I can parse into Excel so this code provided the solution I needed.
Thanks!
