This is probably not the right workaround but it worked for me: cd ... // one level above awt chmod -R 644 awt cd .../jdk hg status // two files found, an exe and a bat chmod 755 src/share/sample/scripting/scriptpad/src/scripts/memory.bat chmod 755 test/sun/management/windows/revokeall.exe
Now hg status runs clean. cding to directories fails and would require more 755s on dirs you want to cd too but Win Explorer doesn't complain.
