Copying Files off CD-R
I copied files onto a cd-r before I formatted the hard drive, but when I
copied them off of the cd the files were locked and I couldn't save to the folders or delete things. Why are they locked and why can't I change them -- Donald |

Why are they locked and why can't I change them The copied files will have the "read-only" attribute set. Right-click on the file in Windows Explorer, select Properties, and clear the checkbox for "Read only". Good luck Ron Martell Duncan B.C.
