How can I easily see which Permissions are already assigned to the NetFrameworkConfiguration RSA Machine Key?

Cause:  
Sometimes it is required to find out which Permissions are already assigned to the NetFrameworkConfiguration RSA Machine Key, this can be done quickly and easily via a Powershell Console

Resolution:  
Run the below in a Powershell Console (run as Administrator)

$NFCKHex = (certutil -key NetFrameworkConfigurationKey)[2].Trim()
$icacls=(icacls.exe $env:ProgramData\Microsoft\Crypto\RSA\MachineKeys\$NFCKHex)-Replace('^\S*','')
$ii = $icacls.length-3;
foreach ($i in $icacls[0..$ii]){$i.Trim() | Write-Host}

This will give you an output similar to the below:



R - Read Permission
W - Write Permission
RX - Read and Execute Permission
M - Modify Permission
F - Full Permission
