Good day
my old c drive started to make a banging sound so I backed up
everything I needed from it to my g drive
after replacement and reinstalling XP with SP3 when I put my profile
back in it is read only any attempt in windows and dos has no affect
at changing it
has any one heard of this problem?
also all files on the gdrive are read only
If it's a CD-ROM, that's normal (not that a CD-ROM would hold a full
backup of a modern HDD...).
As for making your profile work, just right-click on the folder (in
Windows Explorer), choose "Properties," and clear the "Read-only"
checkbox. You'll be prompted to decide whether you want this to apply
only to the folder itself or to all its files and subfolders as well;
choose all.
You may need admin privileges to do this, I'm not sure.
when I do this and come back properties are still read only
normally if I save to cd then transfere back to hard drive it clears but
not now
Hunh. Weird.
When I do it (Win XP Pro SP3), I clear the check box, click "Apply,"
choose "Apply changes to this folder, subfolders and files," "OK," and
it works first time, every time.
If that's not your experience, I don't know what to tell you.
