Excel files are opening as Read Only for multiple users, this is the same whether the files are opened from the local machine or a network share location. Opening other documents from the same location using Word and PowerPoint are fine. All users work from sessions on a Terminal Server.

The users are having to follow the below process when working on an Excel document.

• Open any Excel document
• Complete whatever changes are being made save the file with a new name
• Close the Excel document
• Delete the original file
• Rename the new file back to the original filename

So all users can Read, Write, Delete and Rename files regardless of where the file is opened from, files are being opened from File Explorer not from within the application.

I have ran Effective Access for all users on the various folder / file network locations and none have any access restrictions applied by local, share, and NTFS permissions or security group memberships.

The fact that all users don’t have this issue with Word or PowerPoint files leads me to believe this isn’t a permissions issue.

When Excel documents are opened there are no options to edit or open as read only, you just see at the top the file is read only.

Mengatasi File Excel Read Only - Masalah Read Only pada file Excel sering kali kita temukan ketika ingin menyimpan perubahan data yang sudah kita kerjakan. Ketika pesan read only ini muncul, kita biasanya diminta menyimpan file dengan nama lain atau dengan menyimpan menggunakan Save as agar tidak mengubah file yang sedang kita buka karena berstatus Read Only. Dan ini akan merepotkan, karena pekerjaan menyimpan perubahan yang seharusnya 1 kali klik, sekarang menjadi beberapa langkah karena harus menyimpan file dengan nama berbeda. Belum lagi kita ingin menyimpannya berulang-ulang. Tentunya ini akan sangat merepotkan.

Biasanya file Excel yang Read Only akan ditambah teks pada nama file di title bar dengan tambahan keterangan Read Only contohnya : File.xlsx [Read-Only]. Dan ketika kita akan menyimpan file akan muncul pesan : We can’t save “File.xlxs” because the file is read only.

Cara yang bisa kita lakukan untuk mengatasi masalah ini adalah dengan mengubah hak akses user di file Excel tersebut. Caranya adalah sebagai berikut :

1. Klik kanan pada file
2. Klik Properties (biasanya di menu paling bawah)
3. Klik tab Security
4. Klik tombol Edit 
   
   
5. Pilih User name yang kamu gunakan untuk membuka file tersebut
6. Beri hak akses penuh dengan memberi centang Full Control pada kolom Allow seperti pada gambar di bawah 
   
   
7. Klik tombol OK
8. Selesai

Sekarang kamu bisa mengubah dan menyimpan file tanpa menggunakan Save As. Jika file masih bermasalah dengan status Read Only maka kemungkinan kamu mengubah Full control pada User yang salah. Kamu bisa ulangi langkah di atas pada user yang lain, kamu bisa memilih user lain pada langkah ke 5.

Baik teman-teman, itu saja artikel kali ini tentang Microsoft Excel. Semoga artikel ini dapat mengatasi masalahmu ketika ingin menyimpan file dengan status Read Only.
