Cannot get document off of read only mode.
I have a document that I am trying to open and edit. Every time I attempt to edit the file, it pops up with notification titled "Read-Only Content" with description "Write-protected content cannot be changed No modifications will be accepted." I have tried the shortcut Crtl + Shift + M, with no success. Manually selecting edit mode from the edit menu has provided me no results either. Please advise me on how to make my document modifiable.
Did you create the document? If not, perhaps the person who did create it also saved it as Read Only, in which case there might be no way for you to unlock it. You could ask the originator for an unlocked version of it.
In LO it is possible to save documents protected by a password. As an option to that, it is also possible to allow these documents to be shared as Read Only. I have never used this feature so don't know how it works. It is possible that the document you have was intended to be shared as Read Only. You need the password to edit it.
