File Attributes Issue
I changed the attribute of a file to read only.
Subsequently I wanted to change it back to normal. It apparently allowed. But when I opened the file the title carried the "(read only)" attribute.
I tried to investigate. I found that the attribute of the folder had changed to Read Only without my doing it. So I checked the folder in which this folder was saved. Its attribute had also changed to read only.
So I went to 'USERS' and found its attribute had also changed to read only.
In every case the attribute was getting applied to all sub-folders and files.
I tried to change from the top, "users".
It does not work.
I can not change the attribute of any file back to normal anymore.
This is terrible.
You must address this immediately.

For some reason, Windows marks some files like my MP3 library as read only
I do not care as I can do whatever I want with the music in iTunes with no errors
