Since the latest security upgrade totally screwed up my iMac and I've had to rebuild it from scratch... I need to restore files from my back-up but what was an ordinary folder in Documents is now locked with a red dot -. How do I unlock it to access my files? Get info > permissions only says "Fetching..." and can't be changed. Please advise. Thank you.
iMac 27″, macOS 10.15
I was able to copy the folder to my desktop, then add a new permission to that and apply it.

This maybe a " Alias " to an External Folder on an External Drive
Alias gives same response. "...can't be opened ...don't have permission..."
