Remove Read Only on a file in System folder

[Steve]

I have Vista Home Edition install on a box and I need to remove Read Only on
a file in the Systems folder. My user account is in the Adiminstrator group
yet when I try to remove the Read Only I keep getting an error saying I need
to be an Administrator to do this. What do I need to do to get enough rights
to get the Read Only option remove for the file in the System folder.

Thanks,

What is the name of this file you're trying to remove?

Vista uses a stronger set of ACLs on the operating system files than XP did.
Even administrators have read-only access.

I am trying to use Good Sync Pro.

Operating Vista Home Premium on desktop and Vista Business on laptop.

Need to remove read only on a file folder but each time I think I have
it, it comes right back.

I have tried going into explorer as an administrator, although I am
logged as an administrator.

I tried going through my computer to access the folder with the same
lack of success.

Is there a secret to this?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance !

read-only on a folder does not apply to a folder - it applies to the
contents (AFAIR)
