bash - recursive remove executable chmod from files not folders

English Programming/Scripting
1 
chmod -R -x VirusFound

This works, but kde shows no permissions on all folders.

I need to do on all files, but not folders. Remove the executable flag from all text files, exe files, and all other files.

I can code this, but if there is a clean one line solution.

Thanks.

# ls -R VirusFound

There are many results if you use a search machine. Try

find -type f -exec chmod -x {} \;

I did. :wink:

I needed another person narrow down the field. With some tweaks, here is the final code for all reading. Thanks.

#remove execute chmod flag from all files in VirusFound
find /var/log/VirusVault/VirusFound -type f -exec chmod -v -x {} \; | grep changed
