Re: Locked files on USB sticks in Linux Mint 19.3

Your command
cd </media/kevin/PHILIPS UFD>/media/kevin/PHILIPS UFD ls -l
is not correct.  You left the "<>" in!!  and you didn't press "Enter" after the "UFD".  The ls-l ought to be a new command on a new line. 
In fact you have another problem:  The USB name is in two parts with a space between them so we need to change things a bit.

Enter
Code: [Select]
cd "/media/kevin/PHILIPS UFD"
Note the inverted commas at start and end.  AND PRESS the "Enter" key!!
Then[code]ls -l [...
