Folders reverting to read-only

[lindsayanne]

I recently noticed that all folders on my two computers are read-only, and when I uncheck the box and click apply, they are still read-only. All users have full control, and I tried changing the folder using the admin account, but nothing is working. I need to open a database in SQL Server Management Studio for school, and the read-only folders are affecting my ability to run the database. I tried storing the database on both my USB and my computers. When my professor used her USB on the computer at school, it worked; however, I purchased a new USB and tried to take away the read-only folders, and I am still having trouble. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

It sounds like you know how to change file attributes.

You sound like your computers might be on a network? Please try looking at how to share files and folders over a network.
