RE: [amibroker] OT: Win XP - Read Only files

Mon, 23 Oct 2006 10:18:03 -0700

p.s.
 
when you reinstall XP make sure you reformat the partition you are going to use to reinstall XP!
(part of the options during the install process), make sure you now WHICH partition it is
otherwise you may end up with no data disk!!
 
after 2 years of (continuous) use you need to start worrying about the integrity of your disk drive!
(you may need to back that up somewhere else).
 
also, some applications overwrite data during install, so you may want to backup their data to a
separate folder (i.e. drive:\backup\program files\application name\...)

Thanks Joseph ... looks like I have to re-install XP
 
I have my apps and data on different drives from system, so am safe for loss of data.
 
Do you know if there is a way to automatically register all applications so I won't have to re-install those also?
 
Thanks

try running CMD.exe from your root folder then :
ATTRIB -R [drive:] /S /D
 
If this does not fix it you have a bigger problem. Didn't you have another bizarre behavior just recently?
You may want to consider re-installing Win XP (after backing up important data). Do not mark any drives
as private! (leave defaults)

I have every file folder and subfolder marked as read only, even though the files within these folder are normal (not read only).
 
Removing the read only check from folder properties, does nothing. Next time I look at its properties, it is again marked as read only.
 
This seems to causing problems with making backups. 
 
Any thoughts?
 
Thanks
