Read-only won't remove from folder.

[Sebastien]

Hi All,

I have to remove the "Read-only" option from a folder.
When I right-click on the folder and then remove the read-
only and apply, It doesn't remove the option.. It always
return to Read-only.

Is there a setting in XP that tells to always put read-
only for folders??

Anyone can help? Thank you very much!

Read only is an attribute that has no meaning for folders (the
directories are always open for writing), and XP makes an alternative
use of it. You can change it and on Apply it will ask if you want the
change applied to all contained objects, but the display of it for the
folder will revert to greyed
