Default Clear Read Only documents

"?B?RGVib3JhaEw=?=" wrote in
:

I copied files to my CD and they are all saying they are read-only. I
found a hint on your board to go to Windows Explorer/File/Properties
and click on the General Tab for each file and clear the Read-only
check box. I did and hit apply and it didn't keep it. It reverts to
Read Only. I need help. Thankyou.


Did you copy the files to your hard drive? The read-only attribute
cannot be changed on a CD drive. First copy to the hard drive,
then remove the read-only on that copy on the hard drive.

I've never played with RW versions of a CD (CD-RW), and am presuming
that when you say CD, you mean the write-once variety, which cannot
be changed once written (hence, read-only).
