    Save a copy anywhere, get rights, overwrite original file with new file.

    At least try that.

      Nice of you to try to help, but I don’t think the people who post in this community are open to learning

        The community is not for Linux vs Windows or to humor Linux users. It is for dumping on Linux and it’s evangelists. I’m not going to let evangelists take over and trash it. This simple solution isn’t blaming the user (common evangelist BS), it isn’t making a false claim of Linux being ‘better’ for it. -So I see no harm in it and updooted it myself.

        Actually if you open a file you only have read access to in Windows, it will be exactly the same.
        Save it to your desktop, get rights, copy it to its original location.
