Files saved on CD automatically convert to Read-Only; why?
I am trying to save files to a R/W CD to be used repeatedly. I have verified
the files are not "read-only" before copying them, but they automatically convert to "read-only" on the CD and I am unable to change them. I am also unable to save the changed copy as a new file. I get a message that the entire folder is "read-only." Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong? Thanks. |
Files saved on CD automatically convert to Read-Only; why?
I think all CDs are considered read-only by default.
If I'm not mistaken, it's not as simple to write a changed file to CD-RWs as it is to a hard drive. If so, that may explain the default read-only mode. You can probably copy the files back to a hard drive or USB key and then change them. |
