Hi!
I was tired of not being able to save files in Program Files without starting the program [that saved files] manually as administrator. So I ran the command attrib -R "C:\program files" in the command prompt, and now Windows 7 seems to have reverted to some kind of default protection mode where all the files and folders under Program Files are write protected and I cannot create anything but a folder (which I have to do as an admin)
This is even worse!
How do I get things back to normal?
I tried disabling the write protection after I had run the attrib command, which didn't help at all. I did that twice, actually. Then I ran attrib +R "C:\program files" to see if that'd cure things, but to no avail.
Please help!
