Read only problems

Drake Schlosser Dec 3, 2018 7:53 AM

I am working from my flash drive on a school project. I am the only one editing the part files for my project. Yet the same part file I've been editing for 2 weeks is now a READ ONLY file and wont let me save it in the same file location as before.

Is there another copy open in the background?

Check the files and folder in Window Explorer and see if they're read only.
Also check if you can copy files to the flash drive. A dying flash drive will turn into read only.

  Thanks. And it turns out the flashdrive had gotten corrupted.
