open My computer so you can see the drives and the columns on the left side, snap shot that so I can see if you have made adjustments to the OS to view all file attributes.

I think if you can see the files data NOT hidden...your going to see Golden Locks on them.

basically you need to access the file view windows and settings and make sure you can view all details and attributes of the system including hidden files.

Possibly one way to fix it but that error is a permissions error.

in practice and just tested, attributes areset to a locked condition on a game in C:\program files And Folders

I made a temp holding folder for usage on C:\Tocheck

I copied the data from the game to that folder and watched the locks disappear.

I double checked the locks or all files for them visually. None were found.

I added into the folder files not from the program file folder source, new files.

I then copied these new files to the Now empty game folder left behind.

I found locks on the new files....and these file were not game files .Just a bunch of junk but yet, the system locked them..

made another folder on the root. "Moved" the files to that folder ,Now the files retained their locks.

 

So. my next question IS, did you copy them ? or did you Move them?

 

copied files lose the attributes

Moved files retain their constants and authorized attributes.
