After upgrading to Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS all my .desktop launchers went "Untrusted", and I have to "re-trust" them manually.

While many other posts (e.g. this) say to use the command in terminal:

gio set YOURFILE.desktop "metadata::trusted" yes

I wanted to do this for all my .desktop files in my directory.
