Remove read only from files

Hi,

Read-only is a file attribute, or a characteristic that the operating system assigns to a file. Files can be only opened or read with this attribute active. You cannot delete, change, or rename any file that’s been flagged as read-only.

To change the read-only attribute, follow the steps below:

• 
  Right-click the file or folder icon that you wanted to modify.
  
• 
  Remove the check mark by the Read-Only item in the file’s
  Properties dialog box.
  
  The attributes are found at the bottom of the General tab.
  
• 
  Click Apply then OK.
  

Hope this helps. Let us know if you need further assistance.
