WTF? Every folder on my drive is read-only? - DiscussWorldIssues - Socio-Economic Religion and Political Uncensored Debate

I dunno what happened, but now every folder on my system drive has become read-only. I don't want to have to manually undo whatever did this... help?

EDIT: Ok, I can just select all the primary folders under C:, but when I do that, the changes don't stick. When I reboot, they're all back to read-only.

Sounds like a "permissions" problem...

Thanks bro, but none of my folders have a "security" tab under properties. I dunno where that guy is getting those menus from.

Disable simple file sharing first.
