Hi,
I've tried all the possible options written here, including keys and Link folder and nothing helps.
I realized that also the favorites folder and also the Links folder change back to "read-only" right after I try to change them. any idea?
Thanks,
Amitai

Until someone more knowledgeable responds:
- scan your computer with superantispyware, malwArebytes, eset online
- create a new user account and see if it works logging with it
- check if ok in safe mode with networking
Hello Amitai, and welcome to Seven Forums. :)
Are you sure that they are "read-only"?
If the box is blue, then it's not read-only.
Read-only File and Folder Attribute
they are both with a blue-box checked.
Thanks, Amitai
The folders are not read-only. If you bothered to read what it says in the dialog.
"Read-only (Only applies to files in folder)" the checkbox will always be filled out in folder properties. No matter what.
Yes, I understood that already, thanks
No matter about the read-only issue - the favorites still don't appear.
Please post a screenshot showing this to see if it may help reveal a culprit.
