recovered files now are only read-only

#1 Post by ovideo »

Hi
i've recovered an entire drive (1Tb) from a RAW partition.
now i can see all the files but i can't anything with them because are all in "read-only mode".
i've tried to change them with "attrib" command in windows cmd mode but it doens't work.
someone can help me to work with these files again?

thanks in advance :D
