It doesn't work. The point is to get Finder to sort PROPERLY, which means by NAME alphabetically, but with folders at the top. The method described here does not do that. It puts folders at the top when you tell Finder to sort by KIND. But then the overall list order is not alphabetical, and thus is useless. I wish people would stop posting this bullshit “how-to”.

This is my own private computer and no one else has access to it. I unlocked the info on Finder and tried to adapt the rights but to no avail.
