We recommend using the acl[1] resource for managing permissions on Windows. For debugging what you currently have, the best thing to do is start with the Puppet source[2] starting at the 3.8.1 tag and writing a test that recreates the above scenario and your expected output. Then use pry in places to determine what it is doing. You can also research any known bugs with mode and Windows in the 3.x series that were either resolved in 4.x or still exist.
