Can I force AFR to change read only files?

Thanks.

Hi,

Please download the latest version of the program:
http://www.abacre.com/download/afrexe.zip

This is only updated EXE file. You need to extract executable file from
zip archive into folder where the program is installed. So you will
replace old executable file by this new one.

Then go to main menu - Action - Options - General:
check ON "Force Read Only Files" option.

Tell me does it work now?
Kind regards,

Thank you, Roman. It did work!

However, it does not save the "check ON "Force Read Only Files" option". I have to re-check it on every time I open a different configuration file.

Thank you again.

By default this option is in OFF position.

So you may use AFR to scan all your configuration files and add the
following line there:
ForceReadOnlyFiles=true
