Vista Forces Read-Only File Setting

I've given myself Full Control in every possible way that I could find,
wherever possible, at file, folder and hard drive level.
Yet, no matter what I do, after I uncheck "Read Only", Apply the settings,
and reopen the Properties, the object is "Read Only" once more.

It's getting in the way of most of my applications (and games :P), so I'm
more than willing to do anything I have to in order to solve this issue.

So, my question is: How do I go about giving myself absolute control over
everything so I can force Windows to make all my files read AND write?

Thank you for taking the time to read my question.
 
Are you talking about folders or files? Folders have been displayed as read
only since XP and possibly earlier. It is ignored by the OS and doesn't
normally cause any problems. If it's files then something else is happening.
You'd have to post more details.
