Windows 7 - Trying to change folder attributes

Trying to change folder attributes

I have all my music stored in one folder. I want to remove or uncheck the file attribute from "read only". I have Administrator access, but when I uncheck the attribute box, it reverts back when I go into that folder again. I'm trying to remove these attributes so I can change the album art to my own rather than the small art that Windows has supplied. Why do these file attributes revert back to "read only" and not stay unchecked so I can change these files?

Folders do not have "read only" that box is to add or remove the attribute to sub files.
However the box will always be filled in a folder's properties regardless.
