Addon help - Read only will NOT disable -- Any advice is appreciated.
Hello all Murki here,
I recently started playing Warmane (yesterday) and have encountered an issue with my addon, or lack thereof. I've spent a few hours researching this issue and haven't found any solution yet.
So what I believe the issue is my folder is stuck on "Read Only". Once I untick, and apply it seems to go through but upon opening the properties file again it is ticked back onto read only.
I have done the following steps in order to try and fix this issue but no solution yet.
1. Right click my WoW folder > Properties > Untick "Read-Only" > Apply > OK.
a. WoW folder > Properties > Security > Advanced > made sure I have "Full Control" under permission.
-- *no luck*
2. I have gone into my system settings and turned OFF my "Controlled folder access"
a. Settings > Privacy & security > Windows Security > Virus & Threat protection > Manage settings > Manage controlled folder access - switch to OFF.
-- *no luck*
3. I have attempted to modify my WoW folder from read only attribute to system attribute using CMD.
a. Open CMD as admin > used "attrib -r +s "path of my WoW folder"
-- *no luck*
Additional info, I am using Windows 11 and I have noticed all of my other folders also get reverted back into read only, not just my wow folder. I'm going out on a limb here hoping someone has any help because my last option which I prob won't do is re-installing windows..
Thank you in advance,
Murki.
