How to unlock a file, for editing ? It's been so long now, since I last did this, it's slipped my mind, since TS2015 came out - with a few changes, and things being slightly different, of course, and I'll be fine after a "slight refresher" ! Thanks, if you're able to oblige, mate !

Regards...

Right click on the file name, scroll down to Properties (probably at the bottom of the list) and make sure the Read-only box is UN-checked

Same applies to all files in a folder - right click on the folder name and make sure the Read-only box is clear and unchecked

Hi Chris...

I'm not sure if I got this right, in the first place ! By "file", I mean a file, in Rail Simulator itself. A route, perhaps. If you need to play around with it, some files are locker, to prevent things going wrone, as a safeguard, get me here? How do you unlock a route file ? Sorry for the mistake :oops:

Regards...

Hi Jim,

Load a scenario for the route
Drop into the World Editor
Click on the little padlock icon (bottom right hand side) to lock/unlock a route
You'll be invited to confirm your action when unlocking, click on 'Yes'

What Gary said!

You need to be a bit clearer in what you ask, Jim! :)

That's the second message I wrote, after the first one, just to make things a little cleaerer ! You can't seem to win 'em all, eh ? :-? My problem seems to be that developing some problem with my brain, it's not real bad at the moment, but getting harder for me to recall some things, at times, so I have little option, but to ask for a little help, at times, and, generally, I get it right enough for most to get the problem right in general. Sorry if you had a little problem - think how it was for ME ! :oops:
