.. . . and you're getting a response from the same person.
Your observation is at variance with mine. I used this command:
cacls *.txt /t /g everyone:F
and found that the permissions for all .txt files were changed,
regardless of whether they were located in the current folder
or any subfolder. I recommend you have another look.
Of course if you wish to change the permissions of the
current folder itself (rather than of the files inside it) then
you must do it from its parent. To change the permissions
for C:\Temp you would do this:
cacls c:\temp /t /e /g everyone:f
I also suggest you use the /e switch. Omitting it might
have undesireable results.
