SQL database readonly error on Windows 7

[prasad599]

Hi,

I am facing a strange problem. I have installed a program on windows 7, my installation has a sql database. The program is installed properly. But when i run the program and try to save any data in the database i get an error "Database read-only". How to manage this situation on windows 7 or vista.

Any help will be highly appreciated.

Did you copied your database from somewhere else? If so, look for the db, right click, uncheck 'Read-only' and grant security permission to 'Everyone' with Full Control.

Then try running your installed program as Administrator, right click, choose 'Run as', then login to the administrator account.
