I recently applied a positive read-only attribute to a
folder, including all of its files and subfolders/files.
This was easy, but undoing the change is proving much
more difficult.
When I view the properties of the folder, the Read Only
box is filled with a green square, not a checkmark. I can
cycle through the checkmark, the square and an empty box
by clicking there. If I clear the box, click Apply and
Ok, and then immediately view the properties, the square
is there again, and I cannot write to the files or add a
file to the directories. Copying the files does not help
of course, since the attributes are inherited in the new
files.
Any ideas out there?
Thanks,
