You can set the folder permissions in a command prompt window using the attrib command this usually takes prescident over any windows settings, though I'd not reccomend it for Windows system files & folders.
ATTRIB -R C:\foldername /S /D
The -R removes the read only flag on the folder, the /S forces the action on files within the folder and subfolder, the /D processes all folders as well.
If you need to clear the SYSTEM and / or HIDDEN attributes just include -S and / or -H in the command line next to the -R.
If you type in ATTRIB /? at the command prompt then you'll get a list of the relevent options and format.
Hope that helps
