Automate maxperts.... I need a workflow.

[[)roi(]]

... I just use terminal though:

chflags -R nouchg ~/pathwithstufftounlock

Why is an action needed? Why not just select them all, do a cmd+option+i and unlock them all from there.

If everything is in separate folders switch to List view, do a cmd+a to select all the folders, tap your right arrow key so all the folders open, do another cmd+a to select them all (repeating previous steps obv for any sub folders) and do the unlock.

Nice...

I figured it out, it was pretty simple.
Bwana i never knew you could open one 'get info' window for multiple files.

Thanks for that help but i got it right using automator!

Oh my shattered nerves! Apologies for hi-jacking this, but THANK YOU for that tip - I have so many nested folders -- you've just instantly saved me hours and hours off my (former) pet-hate!

I just learnt something new as well.
