I'm using Ubuntu on Windows 10. I use /mnt/ to access my file system and it worked normally before.

But after I changed the permissions of one of my folders to 700, I started to get permission denied errors for all of cd/mnt/ folders.

  • I edited your question and wasn't sure about your last folder. You wrote that it's `cd/mnt/`, but I suspect that it may be `/mnt`. I left it as it was, but if it's wrong, please correct it with an edit to the question. – zx485 Sep 01 '19 at 23:46
  • Non-owners need at least execute permission in order to enter/traverse directories; typically the minimum useful permission mode for directories is `755` – steeldriver Sep 01 '19 at 23:48
  • i changed the permission of a folder under /mnt/g using chmod -R 700 and after I did this cd/mnt does not work for any drive – Lucie Lu Sep 01 '19 at 23:59
