Read only file ques.

How can I take out read only files out of my data cds?

All files recorded to CD using the CDFS filing system (Compact Disk Filing
System), that is recorded using a mastering application such as Roxio's
EasyCD or Ahead's Nero, will by default be marked as Read Only when copied
back to your hard disk for the because the CDFS filing system knows
nothing of file attributes and therefore sets all files as read only when
copied to hard disk.

To change the attributes of a single file, right click the file, select
Properties and uncheck the "Read Only" box on the General tab. To change
the attributes of all files in a folder right click on the folder and
change the attribute there and choose to apply to all files and
sub-folders. The read only attribute can also be amended by working from
a DOS prompt and using wild cards.
