Description R.L.Symonds 2013-11-17 12:05:18 UTC
You really should do something about this awful component. It is intolerable to have files saved then be unable to edit them. There is no way I can find to remove this feature: the MS advice is to do it through Files > Properties, but the read-only box is usually unticked, and this makes no difference. 

I know there is a rationale for having the facility, but that does not apply to me as a sole user, so I do want to REMOVE it.

Please tell me in plain English how to do it.
Operating System: Windows 7
Version: unspecified
Last worked in: 4.0.0.3 release

Which LO version are you running? Also from your description I don't understand the issue. Please provide proper steps to reproduce the problem.
Comment 2 R.L.Symonds 2013-11-17 16:33:59 UTC
This is the version: Version 4.0.5.2 (Build ID:
5464147a081647a250913f19c0715bca595af2f)

Its quite simple: I do not want files to be saved as 'Read only' - how can
I stop it?

If  I open a blank .odt document and save it is not saved as read-only.
tested on Win7 using LibO 4.1.3.2

I suspect a corruption of your user profile.
try resetting it (backup first) following instructions here:
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/UserProfile

tell us if it fix things or not.

I set status to RESOLVED WORKSFORME since the reporter sent me a private mail telling the the issue is gone after resetting the user profile
