Why does ORD randomly choose to open read/write files in Read Only mode?
I have found, as well as many of my users, that files recently worked on in ORD will later just end up read only. With no explanation.
No other users are accessing the file and no prompts are displayed indicating the file is read only. We only find out when we try and do something simple and are denied the ability, then look down and see it's in Read Only mode:
The Read Only radio button in Windows file Properties Attributes is not checked on.
If we open the file in MSCE (doesn't matter which version) it is read/write and editable. If we reopen it in ORD, file is read only.
We do not use ProjectWise.
