    all files set to read only, and refuse to turn off


    let me preface this with the fact that i have tried every single fix that i can find on here, on google, what have you.


    no matter how many times i go into the properties box to untoggle read only, as soon as i close the box, it retoggles it, and no "fix" i have tried has worked. i have set my user account to full access, and done every little thing under the sun with no results.


    please help me, im a digital artist and i can't save any of my open art files because of this stupid laptop.


    im using an acer aspire 3, if that makes any difference

    :)

    A quick question before we proceed:

    Is your computer airplane mode is turn on?

    I suggest you to go to the follow the below step and check if you’re able to toggle the Airplane mode:


    • Go to settings and click on Network & Internet.

    • Go to airplane mode and toggle.

    I also suggest you to check if the function key for Wi-Fi works or not. Kindly
    Refer to your computer manual to check which function key do so.

    That's what the auto setting will do since you're over the 1333 mark it jumps to the next step which isn't listed or officially supported I assume by that ram.

    At this point though I would suggest dropping the multi one step or .5 so that we can get something stable and possibly take the heat issue out of the picture for now.
