I want to share with Everyone permission, I am using below code

C#

string path = @"F:\Kishfolder";
DirectoryInfo dinfo = new DirectoryInfo(path);
DirectorySecurity dirSecurity = dinfo.GetAccessControl();
FileSystemAccessRule fileRule = new FileSystemAccessRule("Everyone", FileSystemRights.Modify | FileSystemRights.FullControl | FileSystemRights.Synchronize, InheritanceFlags.ContainerInherit | InheritanceFlags.ObjectInherit, PropagationFlags.None, AccessControlType.Allow);
           dirSecurity.AddAccessRule(fileRule);
           dirSecurity.SetAccessRule(fileRule);
           Directory.SetAccessControl(path, dirSecurity);
           dinfo.Refresh();

But with this code the folder is only getting Everyone permission not able to access from shared path.
