Files from a network share randomly open as read only. - AD Administered workstation Troubleshooting: - Only the one instance of the file is open (confirmed multiple times) - Parent folder has user group with full read/write access - file has user group with full read/write access - Windows Classic folders Enabled - rebooted workstation Basically trying to track down any other reason a file would become flagged as Read-Only.

This problem won't have happen if you have SP2 installed. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/830903 But if you have SP2 then check this out http://support.microsoft.com/kb/814112 EDITED Basically trying to track down any other reason a file would become flagged as Read-Only. For XP or for OS: Debian 9.1? i_Xp/VistaUser

I wonder if the system sets the file as 'read only' when one person opens it. That would prevent a second person from changing the file during the time that the first person is accessing it.

His OS is listed as Debian 9.1

The OP might be one of those people who give the specs for the PC they are posting with,instead of the problem PC.

The file might be in a shared folder that you don't have "edit" right access to? Might have to give the members of teh group the ability to edit. Does this problem happen if you access the file with another user from a different OU? A young boy puts a feather into his mouth...
