Unable to remove read-only flag from a shared folder

Hi,

 

I've a shared folder on my ready nas 10200.

If I look the folder properties from explorer (windows 10) i see that the read-only flag is set. If I remove it and click on apply, I say yes for applying on all file and subfolders, the flag is not removed. If I look again the folder properties, the flag is set yet.

What I can do to remove the read-only flag from a folder shared by the NAS?

Thanks a lot

carlo

Have you tried this same experiment on a folder stored on the PC?  I think you'll find that has the same behavior.

Are you trying to apply network or file access permissions on a share over SMB in Local User mode?  You might want to consider making this change through the UI and not Explorer.
