 +**Q.** How do I change my directory permissions?​
 +
 +**A.** Permissions are changed by the command ''​chmod''​. To open read+write permissions to everyone to your user directory, start from your home directory:
 +
 +<​code>​ cd .. 
 +chmod -R 777 <​username></​code> ​
 +
 +<​username>​ is your Linux username. ''​-R''​ implies recursive permissions on all folders in the tree.
 +
 +To turn permissions back off, use command from outside of your home directory ​
 +<​code>​ chmod -R 700 <​username>​ </​code> ​
 +
 +For a better understanding of how permissions work in Linux, use Google search.
