Whenever I open my documents, all the folders in it are displayed with a lock icon. Therefore, I cannot delete any file or folder in it.



I tried changing the root access using sudo chmod user:directory/ but it fails. I am not able to delete or perform any file action with it.



What action should I perform to fix it?
