    Windows 10. All folders are suddenly read-only.


    Suddenly today 6/28/22 all my folders are read only. I've tried all the suggestions I can find on the internet including:- uninstalling anti-virus software- being logged in as administrator- changing permissions administrator and users- changing the folder attributes- running several command prompt commands- and several others. Nothing has helped so far.

    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

  3. Games folder suddenly empty Windows 10

    Using Windows 10. This morning the games folder was suddenly empty. I found instructions that were for Windows 7 on how to turn on games, and tried to use the same method, but when I went to "turn windows features on and off" in the Windows 10 control
    panel, 'games' isn't on the list. Any suggestions?

  4. Windows 10. All folders are suddenly read-only.

    Win 10; Folders: Documents, Pictures andMuic are Read only

    Everything has worked very smoothly for a long time, then suddenly I am no longer able to write to the above folders. Tried removing read only, Win goes through the steps of changing the attribute flag, but when I go back into properties,

    it resets itself to read only.

    Any suggestions?
