hi
the folder is fully accesible
I can read and write freely
no restrictions in use

4

What happen if you run as administrator?

5

Are you trying to save to a network drive or other special folder? Those might not report the access rights the same as normal local folders.

Does anyone have an answer to this? I am having the exact same issue. Folders are not write-protected and this is the only software on my laptop that is preventing saving. Can save to folders using any other software without issue. Seems to be a VC issue and not folder issue.

Good afternoon everyone,

I found a solution to this.

[Caution!] Before attempting this I highly recommend you contact your admin or possibly have backup of the folder.

Purpose: I wanted to save a layout in another folder within our “company shared” drive. It was not allowing me and giving me the “write-protected” error same as the image @stza shared.

  1. Go the folder in which your file is located in.
  2. Open up Properties > Security
  3. Under Security, click on Advanced.
    “Advanced Security Settings for [Your folder name here]” opens up. In that window, you can see Name of the folder, Owner, Permissions, and so on.
  4. I changed Owner to my name.
  5. Under Permissions I added myself and gave “Full control” of the folder if not already there.
  6. I had to “Disable inheritance” for all other users that were there before me. I went ahead and removed them.
  7. While still in the “Advanced Security Settings for [Your folder name here]” window, click Apply.
  8. Click OK
  9. Click Apply and OK in the remaining window.
  10. Restart any programs.
  11. Open and save in different folders.

Note: If anyone can verify if this method works. Thank you
