re: Default ''Read-Only'' of files and folders Wednesday, October 3, 2001 at 3:09 pm Windows XP Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Pickle (1 messages posted) I am actually looking for a solution to a similar problem. I uncheck a "read only" folder and hit apply, but I can go to properties immediately after that and it has reverted to "read only". The files themselves can be toggled on and off, but the folders dont seem to respond. Any solutions or is there somewhere I can turn this feature off.......if it is a feature?
