Solve : how to move read-only files?

Answer»

Hello,
I DOWNLOADED "analyticmath112 win setup" plus "AnalyticMath_Demo2_BasicPlotting_Setup" plus AnalyticMath_Demo2_BasicAutoMath_Setup" in My Documents..>..Download for Evaluation folder, and I WOULD like to move them to a new folder, "Maths All in".
Unfortunately, I can't move the last two, because they are read-only .
I did try to change the files's ATTRIBUTES, but don't work.
I try to delete them and START all over, but it is impossible to delete them. I get ,"Close any programs that migh be USING the file and try again". I don't know
how to do that.
How can I move those files?
or
How can I delete them and start all over and put them straight to the right folder?
Help, help...
best regards,
Try starting in Safe Mode (Tap F8 at startup) and try moving the files whilst in safe mode.
Hope this helps, and welcome to the forum.Right click the file / at the bottom of the new screen look for 'Attributes' / uncheck the "Read" box / close the screen.  If that doesn't work try Calum's suggestion.
