I am listed as the administrator on my computer. I saved some files in my
c-drive but they automatically save as read-only files when i copy them to my
d-drive. when I open them to edit them I can't because it tells me they are
read-only and i don't have access to save in d-drive. how do I change this or
correct this problem?

Is your D drive a CD burner?

Files on CDs are read-only.  Period.

Copy to your local hard drive, remove the read-only attribute, edit, save,
re-burn to CD.  That is the accepted way of doing things.
