Permissions Reset... This simple FREE application was developed to solve one of the most annoying problems with Mac OS X computers, Permissions problems

Permissions Problems range from not being to save your own work into your Documents folder, not being able to update files that others have sent you - all the way to applications not working correctly or even crashing! Permissions are a security mechanism that can control how you and others interact with files. Sometimes these permissions get incorrectly set, or messed up and then the pain begins.
Requirements
PPC / Intel, Mac OS X 10.4 or later.

Whatever the hell this app's shortcomings may be, it STILL works in 10.7.2 and that's what I need it to do.

BEWARE:
When you Quit "Permissions Reset"
this App does connect to linhost192.prod.mesa1.secureserver.net (68.178.232.60)

"Permissions Reset
wants to connect to www.ohanaware.com on TCP port 80 (http)"

then a window appears with Product-Ads !!
"Thank you for trying Permissions Reset, we hope that you like it. We'd also like to show you our other applications."


You then have to close that window, before the App gets closed!

This is not acceptable on a Mac!!!

Still works great in Snow Leopard. This program has saved me hours of pain.

I prefer BatCHMOD which does the same thing but also includes a browse button instead of having to drag a file or folder onto the app's window.

Disk Utility only fixes permission problems on files installed as part of the operating system. It doesn't do anything with user files.

It looks like Permission Reset gives you easy GUI control to work with permissions on your own files.

Indeed it does work on files & folders, which is nice because I was finally able to get some files in my trash to delete, as they have been stuck in there for some time. Excellent!

I was also confused about how this software differed from Disk Utility, thanks for the explanation.

Okay... so this is just a modified "Get Info" window...

Exactly, it's like a Batch Get Info window...
