This upgrade wizard is expedient, if you are running multiple sites in a TYPO3 instance,
and several clients have saved their files in the uploads folder:

* Editors doesn't have access to the uplaods folder.

* Adminstrator doesn't know, which file is owned by which client.



Precondition
------------

* EXT:multisite

* A sys_file_storage record with basePath "uploads/"

* Files must be referenced


Workflow
--------

You can run the Script

* with the Upgrade Wizard

* or with the CLI

.. code:: php
