fixing executables that lost the executable flag
« on: May 15, 2009, 08:10:13 AM »
I restored all my files to my new A1200 that were backed up on a PC. It won't boot and nothing will run though because the 'executable' flag has been reset. Is there a program that can run through all 4000+ files and fix this?

Thanks for the help. My backup was an LHA but I was unable to extract it on the Amiga because a few files failed the CRC check and lha would give up as soon as it got to the first one. Is there a way to get around this?

OK I used LZX and I think it was successful. Now my GVP Typhoon has to hurry up and get here! OS 3.9 can't do much with only 2MB of RAM.
