>> Hey everyone, welcome to Tekzilla Daily, I'm Veronica Belmont. Here at Tekzilla we're always customer focused or viewer focused in our case. Case in point is this e-mail we recently received from loyal viewer Flavio. In the last tip of the day, you taught how to trash locked files. The watcher said that you have to unlock one by one, but that's not true. Select multiple files or folders and then hit Command ALT i and in the information pane that pops up, you can unlock or lock them all with one click. Obviously, this isn't restricted to the trash can and it's really useful in everyday management. Thanks Flavio. Now of course this key combo is super useful when making any changes through a group of files whether it be the label, the application they're associated with, permissions or anything else. So, instead of editing files or folders one by one at a time, you can do them in bulk and save your self some major time. Now if you have a tip or trick that you wanna share, then e-mail us at tekzilla@revision3.com. And don't forget tekzilla.com, it's "the place" to find more tips, tricks, product reviews and how-tos. ^M00:01:06
