re: Default ''Read-Only'' of files and folders Saturday, January 3, 2004 at 8:36 am Windows XP Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Sir Stan (1 messages posted) This doesn't seem to be a very common problem, but it is annoying as hell! I took the advice of this site: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;308421 I was able to change my security level, and able to delete previously untouchable folders. It hasn't changed the fact that all my folders are still read only... Hmmmmm. Thinking it may have something to do with sharing..... Any thoughts???? Good Luck!!
