Re: Unable to remove read-only attribute from files and folders

I have installed a program, and it now needs access to it's folders to
add some additional items, but I cannot get Vista to allow me to do
this. I have taken ownership of the file, and used Windows Explorer
(Run As Admin), but still they are marked as read only files. Can
anyone help me? Seth

Open a command prompt and type
attrib -r +s drive:\<path>\<foldername>
then press enter.
