Read-Only Files

Hello,

There are a lot of files on the filesystem we are managing that have the "read-only" dos flag set on them.  When I try to delete these files, an access denied error is given.  Is there any way to have FileVista ignore this flag?

Thanks,

Hi Pablo,
No, as of v3.1 this is not possible but I have noted your suggestion, we can include an option to force delete read-only files.

FYI, in v3.2 you can now delete files and folders with "Read-only" attribute.
