How to change directory permissions

[argie]

I want to replace some of the graphics used by HTC Home. When I try to store my new files in the /Windows directory with the same name as the existing files, the system tells me I don't have permissions to write over a read-only file.

I cannot disable the read-only flag, and I read this forum and all others in XDA-developers before giving up.

Can anyone tell me how to change permissions?

Thanks,

George

you simply press and hold the file until the options appear in the taskbar, then you can choose open with then you specify which program you are going to open and re-writing the file you mean
