    Same old problem - files chrevert to "read only" and won't change back


    Having searched these forums, to the best of my limited ability, I can see this is a topic that has regularly surfaced over the years. I found many instances of this issue and many, many suggested fixes. However, the fixes I've tried haven't worked for me.

    Question is: after years of this problem surfacing, is there now a definitive solution and if so, would someone kindly provide a link.

    :)
