1029 - What can I do if I get an error saying the file is read only?

by - Joseph Ganci


We are currently working on a file that is giving us an authorware error stating "Unable to save... File is marked as read-only or bad handles on the file..." Any clue how can I get around this without trying to reboot the station?

If it is set to read only, change its setting in Windows Explorer. Right mouse click on the file, choose Properties, then check off the Read Only box. Then you should be able to save. If that doesn't work, something more dire is wrong with your file. Try a Save As to a different name and hope for the best.
