Ubuntu 20.04 – Massive change of permissions and users to folders and files separately

With bash you can more and more…

In linux you can use the “find” command from terminal and execute a command for each result simply.

To change all subfolder permission from a folder recursively you can type:

find /home/xtr/Desktop/myFolder -type d -print0 |xargs -0 chmod 755

now all falders have the execution permission.

To change all files permission from a folder recursively you can type:

find /home/xtr/Desktop/myFolder -type f -print0 |xargs -0 chmod 660

now all files are read/write and no permission to guest

To change all files owners from a folder recursively you can type:

find /home/xtr/Desktop/myFolder -type f -print0 |xargs -0 chown myuser:mygroup

no all files are assigned to a specific user and group
