    Windows 11 opening files on network as read only


    I have a very small business and am running a network with 2 desktop computers and a laptop accessing it. The network is set up on a desktop running Windows 10. We recently replaced the other desktop and it is running windows 11. When accessing files from the new desktop Windows 11 all files are opening "read only". We have spent hours researching online, youtube and microsoft forums and can not figure out how to remove the "read only" status.

    Windows 10 Tweaks

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK
