On certain occasions, we may need to change file permissions due to various reasons. Generally, such a requirement mostly pops out while working in a team where a file requires different permissions for each user. This ability to change permissions increases accessibility while eliminating any user restrictions. Speaking of that, most of us have heard about the RWRR or 644 file permission. But do you know what these letters or digits really indicate? Or how to change your file permission to RWRR?
Well, if not, then you have come to the right place. Changing file permission is basically a two-step process where you first move the file to the system directory and later change its permissions. However, it is not as easy as it sounds. While moving the file must be a piece of cake, changing the permission is what causes uncertainty. But worry no more, in this guide, we will show you how to change file permission to RWRR on your Android phone.
What is RWRR or 644 File Permission?
RWRR, specifically written as RW-R-R refers to read/ write permissions of a file. It generally indicates which user has how much access to a certain file. In this case, the first two letters “RW” represent the owner of the file having both read and write permissions. The second letter “R” refers to read-only permission for the rest of the group and the third letter again refers to read-only permission for others (third-party users).
