"Read Only File"?
I'm trying to save a project I made on Scratch, but it says:
Save Failed:
Is The Folder Read-Only?
How am I gonna do this?? i made another folder, but it says the same thing!! D:

Check the permissions of the folder.

Well, it sounds like the folder that you're trying to save to is read-only. What directory are you saving to?
Directory?

Directory?
The file path. Basically the sequence of folders to get to your file. What operating system are you using?
Assuming windows, if you open the folder in explorer, there should be some text near the top that says something like C:\blahblahrandomstuffgoes here. Do you see anything like that?

When I click on the folder, nothing like that shows...

Maybe you didn't have admin permissions...?
