Please help!
My computer crashed a while ago, it's back up, but I'm
trying to reload a website previously saved to a cd.
I get the following message:

! Server error: Cannot open file "C:\My Webs\UC1
\_vti.pvt/service.lck" for writing

I've made changes to a page but cannot save it due to this
message. At first I found the file opened as read only,
but I unchecked that in properties, and still get the
above error message and can't save.

Would really appreciate advice.

Thanks!

You have to copy the web from the CD to a folder on your desktop, then using
Windows Explorer select all files and folders within the web, right click,
properties and then remove the read-only attributes.

Then you can open the folder by browsing to it with FP, then you can publish
to the correct location on your HD.
