XP had the unfortunate habit of setting the read-only flag of files
copied to CDs. Copying such files back to the hard drive left the
read-only flag set. I had to go to Properties to uncheck the read-
only box before I could edit the files.
Today I did same with Vista. Again the problem with the read-only
flag. Except this time after I uncheck the read-only box (and press
Apply etc), I find that the files continues to be read only. When I
reopen Properties I find the read-only box has been rechecked. I go
round and round several times, but the read-only flag can not be
disabled. Why is is so persistent? How do I get to edit my files?
Any suggestions?
