just like it says, all of my folders are suddenly read only. (i havent been creating many, but i've been downloading and moving things without a problem). then this morning i tried to instal a few games. the install would run like normal but would end strangly, i then noticed that the install was making the new directories and putting files int, but when it finnished the files would dissapear.
i checked out the properties of my c:\games foler and read only is set. i unchecked it, tried installing again with the same problem. looked at the properties and read only was checked again. unckeck, reload properties and its rechecked. restart, no change, same thing. log on as admin, still no different. i've also tried setting the attrib from the command prompt to no avail.
whats up, any ideas?
