To change a Word read-only document to an editable document, there are many different modification methods such as turning off the read-only attribute, stopping review protection, inserting the document, etc. The following are the specific steps to change the read-only attribute to an editable document:
method one:
Right-click the word file and select [Properties]. In the properties, we uncheck [Read-only] at the bottom and click [OK] to exit read-only mode.
Method Two:
Click [Review] in the toolbar, click [Restrict Editing] in Protection, cancel the restricted editing in the word file by entering the word password, and you can exit the read-only mode.
Method three:
Click [Insert] in the toolbar, find [Object], select [Text in File], select the read-only file, and insert it into a new document for editing.
If the word document has editing restrictions set but there is no word password to delete it, we can also consider using tools to help us solve the problem. Let’s take Aokaifeng WORD Decryption Master as an example and use the [Unrestriction] function to help us cancel restrictions on editing word files.
