Good point, follow Rysard's recommendation.

Then, if that doesn't bring joy, try using a command prompt to force Windows to change file attributes. Here's a way to do that in Win 7. I don't have Win 8, so unsure if it works for that OS.

1. Open the Start menu, type in "CMD" in the search window with no quotes
2. Once the DOS window opens, type in "attrib -r +s C:\Users\YourUserName\MyDocuments” using no quotes and where YourUserName is the name of your windows user account and My Documents is the folder where you want to remove the attribute.
3. hit Enter and that should remove the attribute from all files in the folder.
