Suddenly SH3-Comander won't load SH3 anymore. The reason is, that it can't write into the NSS_Uboat7c.cfg and ends the launch-prrocess with an according error-message. When I look into the file's properties it says "read only". I then uncheck this option and try to launch SH3 again and again the error occures because the "read only"-status has mysteriousely returned... I tried several combinations of unchecking and restarting/rebooting but nothing worked so far. As I said, the error suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
So, what can I do?

Are you rolling back SH3Cmdr before removing the r/o attrib? If not, then when SH3Cmdr next rolls back, it will simply return the backed up copy of the file in question, complete with r/o attrib. That's most likely your problem.
Unfortunately, some mods (I don't know which ones) include r/o files. Silly me never foresaw this possibility (perhaps so obvious in hindsight) as stock SH3 files are not r/o and I didn't imagine that modders would add it!
There are also two other possibilities which you may like to pursue:
1. some a/v software "inoculates" files by adding the r/o attrib. Maybe yours is one of them?
2. you must be logged in as a full administrator (this is generally the case, but if you have an account for you and one for anyone else in your house, this may not be the case).
