Can I get some help changing external HD out of 'read only' mode?
    #23957763 - 12/26/16 07:27 AM (7 years, 1 month ago)

Using Windows 8.1 and cannot understand what the various articles are saying. :frown:

Trying to 'rate' songs on JRivers and running into 'read only' problems. I switched my C drive folder easily but there's no 'Attributes'> 'Read Only' checkbox on the external HDs.

individual files have read only. You can select all and uncheck the read only setting.

Just use a real operating system where that is one command away.

You can select the main folder and apply to all sub-directories or select all files at once.

You need to do it on a folder or file, not a drive.
