When I make changes to a file on the CD-RW drive it won't let me save back to the disk. Properties tells me the disk is locked. How do I unlock it ??
 
Hi,

Unless you are writing to the CDRW with packet writing software, you can't
save back to it and rewrite it. The native burning software does not support
this functionality. You would need to install a third party program such as
InCD (Ahead) or DirectCD (Roxio) that has UDF file format capabilities.
