  It's not a problem... it is a feature.

  At a time in the past, Windows has decided that the read-only attribute means nothing, because it applies to files, so Microsoft 'solved' this bit to indicate to whom the file has been customized.  There are other methods available if you really don't want to do a write-protected file.  The details are explained in the following Microsoft KB article.  I recommend reading the article in full to understand what Microsoft did...

• Cannot turn off read-only attribute. Only perform the media folders.

  Yesterday, I noticed that all my files storage of media, that is to say, photos and music, hear the read-only attribute.  When I try to stop, it acts like it is trigger attribute, but it doesn't.  There is a lock on these folders icon.  I have administrative permissions.  It is not limited to a single physical disk.  It affects the files on two different disks.

  Any suggestions would be much appreciated!

• I can't uncheck the 'Read only' attribute with success a Program Files (x 86) folder. Help, please?

  Hello. I have mod Grand Theft Auto IV for pc. Long story short, I have the re - install. There is this called LCPDFR mod that allows you to become a police officer in the game. I need to download this. In order to successfully download this (when I try to download / save, he said "the Publisher of this program could not be verified". it gives me no option to run or something and that's it, apparently because of the problem I put in the title and Description), the root folder "Grand Theft Auto IV" (which is in my "Program Files (x 86)" folder) is not to be 'Read Only' (the 'Read only' checkbox must be deselected in 'Properties'). Do not forget that, under the tab 'security' in 'Properties', for the folder root of "Grand Theft Auto IV", I have administrators / me 'total control '. So, as I said, I uncheck the 'Read only', click on 'Apply', then 'Ok '. I go back in 'Properties' and 'Read Only' is checked as if I had never disabled it in the first place (when I already just did).

  So, in summary, the problem I have is that every time I uncheck "Read only", click on apply, then click ok, and go to properties again, it is always checked when I was already unchecked, applied and then approved it. This continues to be over and over and over again. Please help me?

  PS - I have windows 8.

  I thank you very much for your time and have a nice day!

  Hello. For some reason I'm not able properly to uncheck the 'Read only' attribute of a folder in my "Program Files (x 86)". Whenever I click to uncheck the 'Read only' in 'Properties' (tried several times) and click 'Apply', then 'Ok' and I go back to check it out, it is checked as if I've never disabled it. I have Windows 8. He continues to do this and I don't know why. Help, please?

  Read-only status is normal for files because Windows ignores the
  attribute. Whatever the question is that you are trying to correct may not
  be associated with the State of the file read-only.

• File read-only attribute contains a solid green box in XP SP3__

  When I release read-only file and apply it everything seems correct. I have the option apply to all subfolders and the progress bar looks like it worked. When I return in the properties read only attribute button has a green block in it instead of being clear or active. I tried again and again to the output file, but he returned to play only immediately.

  The read-only attribute is not used for folders in Windows XP. That's why you see the green box and nothing moves. To take possession of the files/folders in XP:

• Can't remove read only attribute even using the command "Attrib - r".

  I have my computer laptop configuration to dual boot Windows Vista and Windows 7.  I installed Windows 7 to see Vista, images, music files and videos Documents in its libraries.  These four files have become read recently that in Vista, and I can't remove the read-only attribute.  I tried to use the attrib command in command as suggusted in KB326549, but I get a message "access denied."  I want to be able to access these files from two operating systems so that I don't need to save the files on two hard disk partitions.  Any suggestions?  Thank you.

  By default, you have only write access to folders and files located inside your user (c:\users\yourname) directory, some hidden folders, and any file that you created.

  The only time you need to write access to all files outside of this area is at this time do system administration or install a program.

  This can be done easily by running some tool or install the program you use "Administrator" by right-clicking on it and clicking Run as administrator, which allow the tool access to the system.

  It's the new way of doing things in Windows Vista - the system is locked, and only the programs you are running as an administrator or you request automatically the authorization are allowed to access your computer. This will prevent programs to access your computer without your knowledge.

  This command "Run As Administrator" is ideal to run on Windows Explorer and command control.exe (Panel).

  It is * NOT * recommended that you change the security settings to allow write access on the operating system created for files and folders, as this will significantly reduce the security of your system.

  So, in essence, it becomes a question of permissions/ownership.  Here's how to deal both:

  To view your permissions, right-click on the file/folder, click Properties, and check the Security tab.  Check the permissions you have by clicking on your user name (or group of users).  Here are the types of permissions, you may have: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/What-are-permissions.  You must be an administrator or owner to change the permissions (and sometimes, being an administrator or even an owner is not sufficient - there are ways to block access (even if a smart administrator knows these ways and can move them - but usually should not because they did not have access, usually for a very good reason).)  Here's how to change the permissions of folder under Vista: http://www.online-tech-tips.com/windows-vista/set-file-folder-permissions-vista/.  To add take and the issuance of right of permissions and ownership in the right click menu (which will make it faster to get once it is configured), see the following article: http://www.mydigitallife.info/2009/05/21/take-and-grant-full-control-permissions-and-ownership-in-windows-7-or-vista-right-click-menu/.

  To resolve this problem with folders, appropriating the files or the drive (as an administrator) and give you all the rights.  Right-click on the folder/drive, click Properties, click the Security tab and click on advanced and then click the owner tab.  Click on edit, and then click the name of the person you want to give to the property (you may need to add if it is not there--or maybe yourself). If you want that it applies to subfolders and files in this folder/drive, then check the box to replace the owner of subcontainers and objects, and click OK.  Back and now there is a new owner for files and folders/player who can change the required permissions.  You can change now switched to read-only (even if the main folder indicates that they are always read-only - you can access yourself as the owner).  You can keep them in read-only to other users, customers and administrators even (although they can support themselves and access, if they wish, and it is really not that you can do to stop it except protect the file with a password by using a 3rd party product).  Here is more information on the ownership of a file or a folder: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/67717-take-ownership-file.html.  To add take ownership in the menu of the right click (which will make it faster to get once it is configured), see the following article: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/add-take-ownership-to-explorer-right-click-menu-in-vista/.

  Good luck and I hope this helps!

• Unchecking read only attribute on files and folder, subfolders does not persist

  I'm trying to disable the read-only attribute in the properties of a folder in the file system.  I uncheck this attribute, I say, too, that he would do that by clicking on apply, then it does to all files, folders, and subfolders... etc and it does.  Then I click ok to close the properties box.  If I reopen it the properties box, the read only attribute is on again once.  I tried several times but keep having the same problem.  I am logged in as administrator.

  How to keep turning off the read-only attribute?

  Do you mean that the read-only box is blue? This does not mean that the read-only attribute is on.

  See this: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/107890-read-only-file-folder-attribute.html

• I can't turn my photos because I can't disable the 'read only' attribute of my files.

  Whenever I go into the Properties uncheck the read-only attribute of my files, it won't let me, but he will return back as soon as I click on ' OK. "

  I tried to change the property, as well as the opening of full control.

  I'm already administrator.

  It happens even when I create new folders on my desktop. It it automatically read-only, and I am able to uncheck with him coming back after I click OK without worrying.

  Help, please.

  The photos are from my phone. Open them in the image viewer and I'm just turning them using that, or good right click to rotate.

  This also happens with the new cases, I create and save all the images that I have on my computer.

  The images themselves are not read-only. The folder attribute is the problem.

  Again, there is no attribute of read-only files.

  If you use an iPhone, the photos can contain metadata that preventing rotation.

• Remove the read-only attribute from all files in a folder

  How to remove the read-only attribute from all files in a folder. I tried to use the properties and used the attrib command, but all I see is when I right click on the folder, selecting Properties, it shows once again

  

  I followed the forums, but I'm really confused. Can someone help me with this. Thanks in advance

  I would like to start by finding which file is read-only again. This is probably a file as well as a miniature file desktop.ini.  An easy way to find it is to go to the details view, turn on the column heading "Attributes" and search for all files with the attribute value "R":

  In this example, the key of SB file is read-only:

• Writing javascript code to a box that when activated, it removes the read-only attribute in another area and allows a number against the default calculation that occur.

  I have an order entry form that calculates a sum of $ calculate markup by a formula in the section rating field simplified in the field on the tab properties.  The field of markup is set to read-only.  I also have a configuration like a checkbox.  If the user selects the check box, I need this field of markup to become editable (remove the read-only attribute) to allow a number to be entered in the field.  I guess I'd also need programmatically delete the calculation in the simplified field notation when the box has been activated.  I think I need a custom java script to trigger on mouse enter?  I could also use some help setting java script.  Someone has it all done something similar?

  Thanks in advance.

  You can no longer use the method of the "simple field notation" If you change the field in certain situations. The following script assumes that you just want to add two fields and use 25% of this amount as your markup, unless the box named "CheckBox" is checked, then the field will become editable and you can enter what you want:

  // get the state of the "CheckBox" - modify the field name to match your form
  var cb = this.getField("CheckBox");
  
  if (cb.value == "Off") {
      // Checkbox is unchecked, so perform the calculation and make sure the field is read-only
      event.target.readonly = true;
       // simple calculation - you need to modify this
      var result = (Number(this.getField("Field1").value) + Number(this.getField("Field2").value)) * 0.25;
      event.value = result;
  }
  else {
      // Checkbox is checked, so do not modify the value, set the field to read/write and let the user enter anything they want.
      event.target.readonly = false;
  }
  

• Read only attribute in Dataset custom

  Hi gurus. I work hard with OIM11g and I've been customizing default connectors application datasets. I saw this page http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23549_01/doc.1111/e14309/request.htm in the guide of the Oracle Developer in which there is the 'Read only' attribute for tag attribute Reference, but I'm not able to download xml dataset application to MDS by specifying the attribute as indicated in this guide naming it "read only". I thought: 'maybe this attribute must be specified read-only'.
  The result is that if I write unalterable = 'false' in one of the AttributeReference tag, none of the approvers could change the field I already have read only = "false".
  
  Am I wrong in something?
  
  Thank you for your attention,
  Giuseppe.

  Two things to consider:
  1. approval cannot change the request data that are filled in by the applicant in OIM11G, they can fill in only the fields 'approver only.
  2 read only = false/true is to make the field editable for the applicant. Imagine you filling a field from the DataSet based on the situation of the applicant and you do not want the applicant alter these data in the query. In such scenarios when you want to display the data that fill the data in the process form (i.e. the dataset to process the form), but still don't want to not just anybody to change on demand, then you will need to use read only = true.

• Text field &amp; &amp; read-only attribute

  Hello everyone,
  
  I have a text field with the read only attribute is on, I need to activate only the Back Space key.
  
  If someone has an idea to do, please tell me.
  
  Thank you and best regards,
  OLA

  If you require a read-only column, only to be read-only other characters than the BACKSPACE key (deletion)? Don't you see that this would NOT be a field read-only? You need a piece of JavaScript to reject all keys but this key when you are in this text box.

  Thank you

• Impossible to create accessible folders writable on a shared drive because the 'read only' attribute is slways and cannot be deleted.

  I have a windows 7 PC on a network with other computers (running XP earlier versions mainly).
  The PC has a reader shared with a shared folder, for general use in the folder data.
  When I create a directory under D:\data it "readonly" attribute is defined.
  I can't remove the attribute "read only". Tried the usual way using properties and using the attrib command.
  User has administrator privileges.
  Network users can see the contents of the directory but cannot write or save because of the attribute set readonly.

  -How to solve this problem?

  If anyone has REALLY an answer pls email * address email is removed from the privacy * it's urgent!

  Ask the administrator to change the attributes of the file to support the writing too. Administrators cannot change the attributes, that too much distance.
