A struggle with a read-only file


Recommended Posts

each time i try to replace a file in a resource pack for minecraft i get this error code thing , i try to "save as" but it doesnt work either.

 

System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Target path has the read only flag set
 
   at PaintDotNet.IO.SaveTransaction..ctor(String path, FileMode mode, FileAccess access, FileShare share, FileOptions options) in d:\src\pdn\paintdotnet\src\PaintDotNet\IO\SaveTransaction.cs:line 265
 
   at PaintDotNet.Controls.DocumentWorkspace.DoSave(Boolean tryToFlatten) in d:\src\pdn\paintdotnet\src\PaintDotNet\Controls\DocumentWorkspace.cs:line 2908

The file you're trying to save to already exists and is marked 'read only'.

Try saving your file to the desktop first so you don't lose your work. Then, you need to right click on the target file and change the properties to remove the 'read only' attribute.
