Hello
I have following problem all my directories on all drives became read-only (
file system is NTFS ). It's a homecomputer so I am an
administrator on it, and what's strange about this directories I can't
change their attributes. I tried to make
scandisc but it says there are no errors. But when I try to change
properties and apply it
seems to be ok,but after closing window with properties and running it again
the read-only comes back. Next strange
thing is this dirs aren't really readonly, you can write to them as you
wish. My hdd is ok, I thougt it could be
broken but the same is on the other hdd. I don't think it is possible to be
a virus ( I have antivirus from a very
long time and I update it every day, I also have a firewall ( it's also
updated frequently ). I made a test I
formated one of partions ( with data not a system ) and I put back all data
on it, after I made it all dirs are still readonly... I think
something happend to windows but I don't now what. I don't want to reinstall
( with repair option ), is there some
better way ? May guess is it's something in registry broken but I don't know
what it can be, where to look for ?
