Hi everyone!

I've been having a localserver for quite a while.. i know that some cms's that i use requeire some folders to be set up as 777

On windows that's "readable".. but the Read-Only checkbox doesn't have a check mark but a square inside it.. when i leave it blank and close the properties window... THE SAME GREEN SQUARE DOT RE-APPEARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

How can i make it disappear once and for all?

Unless a file is an archive or you have purposefully set it as read only they should all be not only readable but writable also. I you have file on your web server on your home PC you should have no trouble with the permissions of the files. Those values 777 755 655 or any combination are only with unix or linux type servers and can se altered with most FTP programs, so I don't really understand what your problem with a web server on a Windows machine could possibly be concerning read write and execution permissions.

Ok, i'm using WMServer to do a local design of a cms... the chmod permissions do affect the behavior of the site, because the cms creates files in order to work properly.. if it's set a read-only, then the cms won't be able to create the files.. ->don't work properly


i'm uploading an image showing you how the read-only property appears..
