Read Only Error (Can't un-tick)

My friend is having issues with RoR, we know it needs to be taken off read only but every time my friend does that it reverts. Apparently this is an issue with Windows 7, we've tried a few different things but nothing has worked, wondering if anyone else has had this problem and how they fixed it.

I found the solution, using "Windows 10", select all files, then right click, properties, then tick "UNBLOCK" then untick "READ ONLY" and "APPLY"
Then the game should load, this worked for me

Im on windows 10, but when you get to properties the only 2 ticks are ''Ready only'' and ''Hidden''

Go to the folder Properties/Security tap to give yourself "full control" and "modify" permission.

Bumping this post. I cannot uncheck my "Read only" either, every time I do it reverts. Then when I try and launch the RoR launcher I get a message stating "the parameter is incorrect"

*bump*
I had to reinstall the game after changing graphic settings. Couldn't get into the game after the graphic change. And now the read-only is stuck.
