The default permissions are typically restricted. To revert, change the directory permissions to a more secure setting like 755 or 700, depending on your needs.

It appears you're checking a file permission setting. The value 755 means the owner has full access, others have read and execute rights, and group members have read and execute. The comment suggests this is the standard default.

By default, files aren't owned by root unless you specify otherwise. If you're okay with that, 755 or 750 usually works well, depending on the level of security required.

Change permissions for the file at / to allow execution by sudo users.

You need to resolve the issue of ownership by clarifying who holds it and ensuring proper access rights.

You may require a -R based on the level of corruption, but sure it should function.

I didn't apply recursion incorrectly, so I shouldn't require it

Very straightforward, just set the ownership using "chown user directory". For permissions, chmod is what you mentioned before. A notable change (don’t stress too much about being a bit odd) is that if you didn’t update permissions recursively, you could have simply verified each folder inside that directory to check its settings.
