read only I never ordered does 7 arbitrarily change files to read only?
i might be getting paranoid, but i could swear it does
seems like whatever folder i pick it is set to contain read only files
i never set anything to read only
can i tell it to stop?
what is it good for?

Hello Madhatter,
If the Read-only box is blue or empty, then it is not set to be Read-only. Please also see: Read-only File and Folder Attribute
Hope this helps,

Folders don't have a read-only attribute. If you read the properties box it tells you right there. "Only applies to files in folder." Why does everyone miss that? | My System Specs | | Computer type PC/Desktop System Manufacturer/Model Number Alienware Aurora ALX R4 OS Windows 7 x64 (SP1) CPU Intel Core i7-3930K (3.2GHz, Turbo 4GHz) Motherboard Alienware Aurora-R4 x79 Memory 4x Samsung 4GB PC3-12800 DDR3 (16GB 1600MHz) Graphics Card Nvidia Geforce GTX 690 (Stock) Sound Card RealTek Integrated Audio Monitor(s) Displays Dell UltraSharp U3011 Screen Resolution 2560x1600 PSU 875W Some Dell PSU <.< Hard Drives Samsung P830 256 GB, WD Raptor 150GB, 2x 1TB HDDs Other Info Dell Inspiron Mini 10v (Intel Atom N270 1.6 GHz; 1GB; Windows 7 Ultimate) |
