"Useful Thing-
Clear Read-Only Attributes
This utility provides a useful function in an easy to use manner.
Have you ever needed to change a folder's ( including subfolders ) 'read only'
attributes?
This Windows shell extension makes it as easy as a 'right-click' on a folder to clear
the 'read
only' attributes from any file copied from a cd-rom.
A brief description from the author-
"CROA is a handy utility that will clear the read-only bit of all subfolders and files
in a specific
folder.
This is extremely useful after copying the contents of a CD to your hard drive. "
The file is 264K and can be found here-

Program requirements:
Windows 95, 98, NT 4, 2000
VB5 runtime files
