Re: Read Only Files question

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

I wouldn't worry much about the read-only on the files, Windows will overwrite them even if it was set. Move on to something else.

Hello, A friend recently had a virus on their computer and all files on the C Drive are now set to writeable.

Wondering which files should be set to " Read only"

There is no file sharing, nor multiple users, but only 1 user of the computer.

I have tried to find a list of which files should be "Read only" but am having difficulty.

Many thanks
