Read Only issues
I have some files that I need to add to a folder. I scan and try to save, but an error saying that the folder is read only. I go to the folder properties of the said folder and find that a check is in read only. I remove it and say to apply to all file and folders, and click apply and ok.
I try to save again and the same messaage appears. I look at the properties of the folder to find a check again with the read only. How do I prevent this from happening so I can save my document in the correct location?

You may not have permissions to change the properties of the folder. Are you an administrator on the machine in question? What operating system is it?

I am logged in as admin and it is a windows 7 machine.
