Hi Folks,

Loaded a load of photos onto a disc [CDRW] via Easy CD creator. Gave the disc to a friend but the files are all locked so she is unable to modify them in any way.
Is there anything she or I can do to sort this?!

Cheers,


Duncan
 
all she needs to do is copy them off of the cd Duncan :) it wont allow re writing unless she has the exact same software installed, some companies use proprietary UDF software that isnt universal.
 
She'll probably need to go into the file properties and turn off the read-only flag. Windows automatically sets it when copying files from a CD.

1. Copy files off to a folder
2. Press CTRL-A to select all files
3. Press Alt-Enter to get file properties dialog
4. Uncheck 'read-only' box
5. Click OK
6. Job done
 
Hi Guys,
Thanks for the suggestions, have passed them on and will report back!
