read only?

maybe right click on a file, then click "properties", then find the "read only" box and uncheck it

If your saving files onto a folder, you may want to check and see if you have the ability to change files saved within the folder. You may be trying to acheive the impossible.

If that's the case, try saving the file onto the desktop and then opening it. You should be able to work with your program that way.

Also check to see if your easyC/mpLab license hasn't expired. That could also be causing a problem. Other than that, I don't know what else to say.

Are you sure you copied them and didnt just make a short cut?

Another Thing,

If you are trying to use a school computer, you may be locked out of certain directories for security reasons, and hence, you aren't able to make changes or save anything onto that directory.

Try creating a folder on the desktop, or some other directory where you have permissions to write to and save your work.

Let me know if this helps.

save it to the computer first and then try to open it.
