• 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;
  }

• I am trying to remove the read-only in a file of windows vista program

  Hello

  I'm having a problem with the program files in Windows Vista. I have a file that I need to be able to write to and I can't get out of the read-only mode. Can someone help me with this please?

  Thank you.

  You really shouldn't be messing around in the Program Files folder unless you REALLY know what you are doing, because the wrong action can cause a lot of damage to your programs (more than one in some cases).  You experience trouble intentionally caused by Vista.

  But assuming you want to do anyway for some reason, the said problem as a Teen geek is ownership and permissions.  They are particularly tight on the programs folder (and hard to get around even for people experienced in this sort of thing).

  You must you give full permissions and take ownership of the files or the folders that you intend to work with.  You may need to change the permissions of the parent due to inherited permissions folders.  You may also use the advanced permissions option to deal with special permissions (maybe change some while they are not inherited or others in order to provide the right permissions as well as the main permissions screen.  I don't know how long until you go to appropriating, but start with everything that you need and work upward only when necessary.  Here are a few guidelines for permissions and lines taken possession that should help you:

  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/

  I hope this helps.

  Good luck!

• I am trying to remove the "read only" attribute of the file, that I had just downloaded in Windows Vista

  Original title: administrative account - change a read-only file

  Administrative account: I would like to change a file I am trying to download on my computer.  I don't know how my administrator account to change the file, I am trying to open - fly a read-only.

  Hi auddie,.

  1. What is the error you get when you try to open the file?

  I suggest that you take the file and check.

  a. right click on the file you want to take control and then click Properties.
  b. click the Security tab and then click OK on the security message (if one appears).
  c. click Advanced and then click the owner tab.
  d. in the name list, click your user name, click Administrator, if you are logged in as administrator, or click the Administrators group. If you want to take ownership of the contents of the folder, select the replace the owner of sub containers and objects check box.
  e. click OK and then click Yes when you receive the following message is displayed:

  You are not allowed to read the contents of directory folder name. Do you want to replace the the directory permissions with permissions granting you full control?

  All permissions will be replaced if you click Yes.

  Note: the name of the folder is the name of the folder you want to take charge.

  . Click OK, and then re apply the permissions and security settings that you want for the folder and its contents.

• Removal of 'Read only' problem Windows 7.

  I want to remove the read-only form a game folder - void / files etc, I do via folder properties menu and it indicates that changes have been made (window comes up with bar grey fillings up to green) and yet I come back and it's like I have nothing. I want to just delete a few old stops and changes to some of the maps (there are a map editor). The game is Civilization III complete. I read somewhere on how to solve this problem through the command prompt, but it did not work... any help? I can't find the 'Saves' folder in the folder of the game. It seems ingame, but outside of the game, I thought that the path is not... This has also to do with the attribute "read only"?

  You can try to run the program as "Administrator" by right-clicking on the icon from the desktop or the .exe file of the game in the game folder, select "Properties" then the "Compatibility" tab and placing a check mark in the box "Run as Administrator" at the bottom of the Panel. This should, in theory, give the game the ability to write but also to read.

• Eliminate the 'read only' files on DVD. Went to properties and clicked off the coast on the 'read only' box, but it does not work.

  Put some files on DVD and then tried to change them.   Receipt message they are 'read only' tried to click on 'read only' in the properties, but this does not work.  The 'read only' is back.  How can we change the files on a DVD?

  In general, once you write multi-utilisations, you can not edit the file.  If you use a rewritable media, you can delete the file and write again.

  DVD writing (burning) is not present natively by XP.  What application you are using, including version?  Support for packet writing?

• Cannot get rid of the read-only file attribute

  I have a folder on my PC which is marked read-only.  The Setup program seems set up like that.  If I right click on the folder and go to 'Properties' there is a grey checkmark on "read only".  If I have it uncheck the box, and then click OK or apply then OK, it remains unalterable (the grey tick comes).  There is no hidden file in the folder.

  How can I fix it?

  Contrary to all logic of common sense, the 'Read only' attribute, as shown in the Properties screen has absolutely nothing to do with 'Read only' when it refers to a folder in Windows XP. In fact, it indicates that it is a custom folder.  A full explanation can be found here:

  "You can not view or change the read-only or the attributes of system files in Windows Server 2003, Windows XP, Windows Vista or Windows 7"
    <>http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/326549 >

  You don't mention exactly what your "problem" is with this folder, so I can not develop too much more than that.

• Cannot cancel the read-only file attribute.

  I click to clear the read-only and then hit apply to apply it to the folder and all subfolders, and looks like he took command. I closed the window and then reopen it and the read-only attribute is again highlighted. I am the administrator of the computer and I tried to move the folder to another location.

  Read/write attributes are not applicable to files in Windows XP, Vista or Windows 7. That's why you can't change the way you do. If you try to take possession of the file, this is how:

  Signature the administrator XP, I can't change the 'read only' tab on the records. After I click on the box to cancel 'read only', the computer checks the box itself. How can I get the computer to end definitively the status of 'read only' on selected folders?
