How to remove read only protection from a file?

[Perect Image]

Everytime I save text or photos to a cd rom (rw), it saves it as a read only
file which I can't manipulate. Why is this and how do I remove the read only
protection from the file? Please help. Thanks

I'm assuming you are trying to open and modify the file while it is still on
the CD. Which you can't do, how could you, it's not a hard-drive. Copy the
file off the CD onto your hard drive to modify the file.
As for removing file protection, right click file and select properties to
locate the file attributes.
oh btw this forum is for questions concerning the use of Microsoft

Right click on the file,
Uncheck the "Read Only" box.

Any time I copy a large number of files onto a cd, I first zip
(compress) them. When I unzip them back onto the desktop they can be
manipulated as I want. If it is just a few files you can right click on
the files and uncheck the read only box, but you can imagine how
annoying and slow it is if you have to do this to many files, thus the
reason for zipping or compressing them first.
