Can't take Read-only off of folder.

[Guest]

Yes I am. If you read my posting again you will see that I mentioned that
fact in the third paragraph of my posting.

Before I forget, why have you put a link in your reply, to what I can only
assume (whether correctly or incorrectly) is a dodgy website, that might be
trying to sell 'gold watches'? Or more likely an even dodgier website that
only CLAIMS to have gold watches for sale, but more likely is just trying to
take gullible peoples money and give nothing in return? Where I come from
that sort of behaviour is that is called conspiracy to defraud, gaining money
by false pretences, or attempted theft!

I don't think any people reading these questions and responses would
actually stupid enough to clink on this link, never mind be of the belief
that you might actually have gold watches or anything else to sell, or even
really be called 'James Matthews'. If this link goes to a genuinely helpful
website regarding 'Windows Vista Issues', then it is more than a bit daft
giving it the name that is has got, isn't it?

Please note that if you are genuinely called 'James Mathews' , and you are
not trying to hijack this newsgroup thread in order to do what I have
described above then you will not have any reason to take any offence at
anything I have just written above because it won't apply to you. If you are
actually as described as above then the paragraph below will apply to you.

This as you should know already is a newsgroup for people who need help with
technical issues regarding their VISTA CCOMPUTERS and has bugger all to to do
with trying to buy or sell 'gold watches' or anything else, so why don't you
just **** off and try your crap on someone else!!

I also have this exact same problem. My admin/user account has full read/
write access and when I open up a file from a game to optimize a config file
and hit save it says, "Access to "file url" was denied." This is very
irritating. As I bought Vista for direct x 10 for gaming. Some games need
little tweaks to run smoother and its not letting me do do anything.
Assistance would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Joe

Do you right mouse click and "run as administrator"?

 

[stantonl33]

Hmm I have not, I will try this. Kind of odd that I have to do that when I am
logged into the administrator account though. I will try it later on after I
get off of work. Thank you for your response.

It must be me but I was unable to find the option to run as administrator
when right clicking on the files and folders. Am I not clicking on the right
thing?
