Set an archive to writable or read only

To change the protective Write flag for an archive file, right-click the archive in list view and select the appropriate option.

• To make a read-only archive writable, select Make Writable.

• (Not recommended) To make a writable archive read only, select Make Read-Only.

  Caution: Setting an archive to read only can result in data loss. The preferred method for preventing archive changes is to use the EditDays tuning parameter to set a time limit for archive changes.
