Hello guys.

Starting last week or the week before - several files I was editing without 
problems started becoming readonly. It can happen on the first or the second 
write- it is indeed quite random.

However, I tried with a clean vimrc and empty bundle of scripts and it still 
persists.

I did check every folder (and all files) where I was editing.

Indeed every folder on my entire Windows 7 system is marked "Read-Only" this 
problem seems to spook Windows users 
(http://itexpertvoice.com/home/fixing-the-windows-7-read-only-folder-blues/).

I'm unsure whether this is Vim or Windows' fault ?

I tried alot of the suggestions on the Windows side of things (couldn't find 
much help in Vim threads) - none of it worked.

I closed all applications that could lock the filesystem (Kaspersky, SpiderOak 
for backups).

Using "set noreadonly" doesn't work either. It reappears as "readonly"

error E505 or E45 "readonly".

Regards,
Christoffer.
