The problem is, it won't go away! I was trying to ogranise my photography folder just now and tried to change and edit some folder names around and their placement, and I kept getting this error basing telling me to f off. So I check the folder properties and they're all read only! I don't remember ever setting them to that, and windows won't let save the folders with "read only" unchecked. I uncheck it, save, then open the properties again, and its checked again!

Can somoene please help me? :confused:

When copying from read-only media, like a CD or DVD, this happens a lot. Not sure why it won't keep the changes, but you may need to take ownership of the files and give your user account full control on all the folders, telling it to propagate the changes to all child objects.
