Hello,

Under Win 10 22H2, we keep having a maddening problem. It's maddening because suggested solutions seem to work, but only for a while, then the difficulty reappears:

A file crucial to the operation of our small network, keeps reverting to Read Only. I have searched, and experimented until my fingers are bleeding, but with no lasting luck.

Might there be an actual solution out there that someone might share?

Sincere thanks for any help,

Lothar

Hi again,

I came upon a suggestion that was offered essentially as an "If all else fails, try this bombproof fix."

I logged in as an administrator, and entered at a command prompt:

attrib -s -h -r "E:\Paradox\NETFILES\*.*" /s /d

That entry brought me back to the command prompt (that is, it was accepted) but after a reboot, it seems to have failed. The folder is again, Read Only.

Thanks,
Lothar
