From time to time, we have all seen a situation where files were blocked in Windows.
Example below:
Typically, we have been told to unblock the zip file before unzipping, which should unblock the files within.
If the files have already been unzipped, there is a way to Unblock Multiple Files at the same time.
Example 1 - How to unblock everything in the Manitou folder.
Example 2 - How to unblock everything in the Manitou folder AND its subfolders.
