Beed Help - Folder Permissions

[Guest gecko]

I am using the so-called Solutions Center for the HP 7200 series AIO,

and cannot get the scan function to save what I scan. It shows an

error message saying that it cannot do the save. I am using XP PRO

SP2.

 

I had created a new folder called c:\My Scans, but I notice the

properties say read only. Naturally, I suspect this is my problem,

but when I remove the check on read only, it comes right back again.

That is, it won't let me remove the check. The XP Helps show that I

should be able to change permissions, but it shows doing it via a

security tab under the folder's properties. I see no such tab.

 

What am I missing? Am I in the right place to do what I want to do?

Do you think this is why I cannot save what I scan?

 

I am the only user of this system with Administrator privileges, I

think.

A check mark in the readonly box of a folder does not mean what you think it

means. XP ignores this setting.

 

You must disable simple file sharing to see the security tab.

 

I know nothing of the program that you are using, but rest assured that the

readonly attribute of a folder has nothing to do with your problem.
