Operation not permitted in MAC OS for delete and move

While trying the delete or move operation in the command prompt, we faced a issue that even root user can't delete or move or rename the folder or file.

was 👀  looking in the found a solution.

May save your time too ...

Steps to resolve:

1) open a Terminal.
2) go to the previous directory in which you face issue. IN my cases ~/Download is the folder in which i can remove any, due to Operation not permitted issue.  So I have moved to /users/xxxx
3)  run the following command in sudo.

     sudo chflags -R nouchg,nouappnd ~/Downloads/ 

replace the folder in which you are facing issue in instead of ~/Downloads/  in above command.

Hope will this helped you 👍
