function Reset-Authorization{
<#
.SYNOPSIS
Reset the ACL and attributes of a path to its default state if we have already known the default state exactly.
For more information on the motivations, rationale, logic, limitations and usage of this function, see the [post](https://little-train.com/posts/7fdde8eb.html).

.DESCRIPTION
    Reset ACL of `$Path` to its default state by 3 steps:
        1. Get path type by `Get-PathType`
        2. Get default SDDL of `$Path` by `Get-DefaultSddl` according to `$path_type`
        3. Set SDDL of `$Path` to default SDDL by `Set-Acl`

    Only for window system
    Only for single user account on window system, i.e. totoally Personal Computer

.PARAMETER Path
    The path to be reset.
.PARAMETER Recurse
    A switch parameter to indicate whether to reset the ACL of all files and directories in the path recursively.
.OUTPUTS
    None.
.COMPONENT
    ```powershell
        $new_acl = Get-Acl -LiteralPath $Path
        $sddl = ... # Get default SDDL of `$Path`
        $new_acl.SetSecurityDescriptorSddlForm($sddl)
        Set-Acl -LiteralPath $Path -AclObject $new_acl
    ```
