Hi :) 
There was a Win 10 update that messed up the permissions in one of the
places i volunteer at. 

I have no idea how to fix it.  I think we went through each individual
folder to reset the permissions but that sounds like a very
inefficient and highly error-prone way of trying to fix it generally. 
Still, 'everyone' loves Windows. 

Regards from
Tom :) 

Wow. Craziness.   :)

Peace...

    and then rename the new document to fit in with my filing system. 
       This is time consuming, and very inconvenient.

    LibreOffice5, but to no avail;  the problem is still there).   
    However that is only a wild guess!     I would be grateful for
    your advice and a remedy

    I have two basic questions:

     1. Have you confirmed the original file wasn't already "read-only"
        before attempting to open it?
     2. Are you opening files from the file system or directly from an
    email
        attachment?


    These are things you have probably already thought of but I want
    to ask
    anyway.  :)   I've run LibreOffice 5 on a couple of Windows 10 systems
    and have been able to open, edit, and save documents without issue.

    Peace...
