Since posting my previous comment, my main computer (desktop) has been reverted to Windows 7 because I can't afford the time to figure out what the problem is with the read-only glitch.

I've decided to keep Windows 10 on my stand-by laptop to get used to how it works and to monitor its progress as an OS.

However the issues with password protected Excel files returned. Word documents did not revert to read only.
Have just tested turning the preview pane back on. Noting all folders in Windows Explorer remain set to read only. Turning the preview pane off in Windows Explorer cured both MS Office issues. Found the icon in Windows Explorer and manually turned it off (then thinking I may have accidentally previously clicked this icon turning it on when actually trying to change the view options). I had noticed the preview pane had recently come on (never used before) and thought this was possibly the result of an update. However Excel would not then allow you to close the file (it would hang).įound a reference that linked read only Word files to the Windows Explorer Preview Pane. However if you opened Excel first and then, say opened the file by picking it in the Recent list, it opened fine. You could not open a file via a double click in Windows Explorer when Excel was not running. However this did not resolve Word documents being read only.Įxperienced another issue with password protected Excel files. The only way found to delete it was in Windows Safe Mode. In Windows Explorer the file icon for normal.dotm was found to have a '!' present and was set to read only. Some references advised deleting normal.dotm so that Word would recreate it from scratch.

The Windows account being used throughout was administrator with Full Control. Manually clearing this applying to all sub-folders and files completed the task fine but all the folders immediately reverted to read only. Found all folders were found to be set to Read-only. Some references suggested check using Windows Explorer to see if the folder properties are set to 'Read-only (Only applies to files in folder)'. Have noticed this read only issue with Word documents has been widely reported for some time. Creating a new word document from scratch and copying the text in from an existing document was fine until you closed the file and opened it again to find it was then changed to read only. Also you could not rename or delete Word files. Suddenly found all Word documents opened read only.
The only way she was able to get around the problem was to turn off the automatic backup file feature in Word (Tools | Options | Save tab, clear Always Create Backup Copy) while working in that document. It wouldn't happen to all the documents, but once it did happen to a particular document, it would keep happening to that document no matter what she did. We've not been able to discover the real cause for this problem, but one of our subscribers reported that she experienced the same problem with some Word 97 documents. Suddenly, the status of the file would change on its own, and when John tried to save again, Word wouldn't let him because the file was read-only. It doesn't do this right after opening the file, but at different times while using the document, and most of the time after the file had already been saved a couple of times. It seems that Word periodically, and without warning, converts a file to "read only" while it is being used. Subscriber John McQuillan ran into a problem with one of his document files.
