When the task at hand has been completed, you can then search for a more permanent way to deal with such annoying notices in Windows 10 Henri

Read Only documents
I,ver been a user of Open Office for several years. Recently, files that I've created with Word are opening as "read only", even though they were not originally created or saved with that property. The Help file tells me to toggle the "Edit File" icon to allow file editing. When I click on the "Edit File" icon to edit the text document, the program crashes. Is there a setting to change the default away from "read only" or another way that I can edit myself saved document files?
