    Can't change Read-only status of directories

    I copied a multi-project asp.net website, complete with source, and I'm
    trying to build it on my dev box which is a server2003 image. All the
    directories are marked read-only and if I uncheck them they don't stay
    unchecked - they resort back to their read-only status. So, I can't build
    dlls in the bin directories or change anything.

    This is come kind of a security problem. I'm an administrator on the
    system. I gave Everybody full control.

    Anyone have an idea what is wrong?
    Thanks,
    T

    Hello Tina,

    This is the windows NG question, not the ASP.net

    BTW, you should try to override the file owner right to your one (the check
    box in the ower tab, probalby) and check that u have writing rights on the
    current folder, and on all roots folder as well
