Re: Locked files on USB sticks in Linux Mint 19.3

Again, you've run two command into one!
Code: [Select]
cd "/media/kevin/PHILIPS UFD"
ls -l
That's why I recommend the use of the GUI rather than the command line. You obviously can use that, as you say you saw a padlock on a folder or file. Right-click on the offending item and select the option Properties. There you can check the permissions and see who owns the file and what access is allowed.
