RE: files in the Documents folder are read-only

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

If it only happened in the past week, you might try System Restore to a point
prior to that time.

All (or at least most) of my documents in my Documents folder became
read-only. I believe it must have happened in the last week.

What caused it and how do I undo it ? When I right click on any
file/Properties, the Read-only box is unchecked.

This is disturbing ......

Thanks.
