				| You don't set folder permissions on Windows ! 
 What your trying to do is do a CHMOD which is not needed
 on a Windows Operating System , just use the script. Later!

				| richardyork, 
 To make a directory of a file writable on Windows, open the Windows Explorer, go to the directory, right click on it, select Properties and uncheck the Read Only attribute.

				| That is only setting the file properties to beable to be written to.  Files can be set as Hidden, Archive and Read Only. |  |
