It doesn't work. Still the "read only" remains checked.

I HAVE TRIED THIS WITH NO LUCK WINDOWS 10 REALLY SUCKS THANK YOU MICROSOFT.

I have the account i'm using as administrator and full control yet i still cannot change any folders from read only

[AngelboyVR]

it's just fascinating to me that this OS has so many problems, including this, that it even hits me.
why are people so blinded by sunshine and roses, thinking that win 10 is any good. where in reality it only caused grief?
I can understand having so much luck dodging all these issues and having an opinion based on that. or beeing a casual cat and barely using it so they never run into problems. but I'm talking high end user here.
u ask what grief?
1. getting forced to jump to win10 forcefully because they
2. stopped suport for win7 (the most godlike and unmatched OS by far) rendering it useless all of a sudden for everyone!!!
3. most inconvenient win10 instalation ever!
4. recent security gaps that shoock the world.
5. screen resolution incompatibility and inconsistency with any screen lower than 1080!!,
6. windows app store ._.
7. and now this (shown in the video)

I never had any of these issue on win7
and I had win7 for over 12 years, inwhich it never broke down on me, infact minor issues where easily fixable.

I tried this, I keep getting a message that files or folders couldn't be "enumerated, " does that mean I have to do it one folder at a time? I just cloned my hard drive onto a new ssd, and now I can't modify any of my text files.

Tried it step my step, reboot pc, still can not remove the tick in box "read only"!

[yakapa]

I am unticking it and nothing happens.. It just ticks itself again

[ryansta]

Thank you for guide, but I get - cannot enumerate error whilst trying to add the users part. Maybe they've changed something since you posted the guide ?

[ventmistral]

Yes you can do that if you want see your files encrypted by ransomware virus..

[wyslanniknewworldorder]

Thanks, I needed that for *"Sciencific purposes"*

[proguyisaprorlly]

it didnt work whatever i do its always read-only

[Senz]

Bro I'm trying it but when I do unread then it ask that U need Administrator permission access denied .

[BiteDeChameau]

I can’t install any games on steam because my drive says read only

[theguestlol]

Whenever I press okay after typing 'users' the next tab doesnt appear.

[jamescullins]

I am using Windows 10 and I don't have a security tab in my folder properties tab?

[lujoviste]

Whenever i click read only to check it off and open the properties again the read only is checked again

[brianmazakas]

So, does this fix the fact that the USB drive has all file with the E attribute and can not be decrypted and totally ignores the administrator rights saying device access denied

[alejandro]

I did the same thing but still cannot save, whats wrong with this excel, , on the properties its already uncheck.. i followed your tutorial but still the same.. what's wrong with my pc

[personinagamingchair]

all my files have read only off, and they only have the general tab
