Windows somehow got convinced that a file is a folder. How do I change it back?
- by Ben Collins
I recently moved an external drive from my usb-enabled router to my desktop machine, and ran into some permissions-related issues. A number of files were giving me errors when I tried to take ownership or set permissions, and in all my fiddling on a particular file, it somehow got switched to a folder.
Anyone have any idea how this might have happened, and how to flip it back?
