Question:

I open InRoads and I get a message stating that the XIN is in Read-Only.

Solution:

Right click on C:\Program Files (x86) folder > Properties >uncheck "Read-Only" > Apply > Select "OK" to Apply changes to this folder, subfolders and files > Select "Continue" on the Access Denied dialog > Select "Ignore All" on the Error Applying Attributes dialog. After this has finished processing, go to the start menu and right click on the icon used to launch the product > Properties > Compatibility > toggle on "Run as Administrator" > restart the computer and launch InRoads.
