What's the problem with clearing the Read Only attribute on the files? Just right-click and choose Properties. If you want to clear the attribute on numerous files at one time install an applet called PropertiesPlus (do a Google search or go to

Or just select multiple files and then change the attribute.

But, I also must ask why a file that is created in SW and saved directly on the USB key then is read-only. I wouldn't think this could happen because then SW couldn't save over it as you worked on it. If that's not what's happening, please let us know.
