Can't remove "read-only" attribute from folders or files
It started out with my microSD card - I tried to view the files on my computer and it said "the disk is write-protected" and wouldn't let me view anything. I realized the adapter was locked ,unlocked it and tried again. This time I could view the files but run the Error-checking tool on the card. Same message showed up, "The write disk is protected." Tried another adapter, same thing happened.
I then copied everything I had in the SD card into a new folder on my computer and formated it, thinking this might solve the issue. But of course I wouldn't be here if it had Still can't run the error-checking tool, or create a new folder. I tried to copy the files back to the card and kept getting the same message, that the folders were write-protected. I tried unchecking the "Read-Only" box on the folders, then used command prompt, then went into the folders and unchecked the box for the content instead of the folders (i.e. pics, audio). Nothing's worked.
I'm a little desperate and very frustrated. How do I remove the attribute from the files I copied from my SD card? And how do I fix the issue with my SD card itself?
Thanks a bunch.
