Re: Properties/readonly disabling?

Actually it seems as if every folder,subfolder and file on the drive
are marked as read-only.

The files most at issue that need to be worked urgently are in a
folder with subfolders and are all .doc files. Have looked in Word
2000 but can find no options that allows all .doc files to be marked
as unread.

I have disabled all the antivirus, firewall and associated progs but
still everything I need to manipulate wont budge.

Thanks again for you interest.

Can I disable this feature completely from a non boot hard drive or
partition. For example keep the Read-only, Hidden and Archive
checkboxes permanently unchecked.

Thanks for your interest,

Terry


Is this on files or folders?
Is it all or some?
If it's only some can you give some examples?
