- Read-Only attribute.
- Posted by Patrick D. Rockwell on July 5th, 2004
I just discovered that in Windows XP, you can make a file "Read-Only", and
still be able to delete it. The only difference is that if you try
to delete a read-only file, the computer will remind you that it is a
read-only file, and ask you if you still want to delete it. Am I missing
something? Is that the only difference? I also discovered that makeing
folders read-only doesn't seem to make ANY difference at all.
Am I right, or does the read-only attribute restrict non-administrators from
modifying or deleting the file or folder? Thanks in advance.

seeing as you are an admin.. you should have permission to read, write and
change files even if it is just set to read only.. log in as standard user
and see if you can still delete it.. if you can read the article above
explaing how to set advanced file permissions.
