[Vm-dev] [Patch] FilePlugin for Windows can now delete read-only files

[Max Leske]

Hi,

I just submitted a patch for the FilePlugin that enables deletion of read-only files on Windows. With this patch the VM treats deletion of read-only files on Windows the same way it does on *nix systems (except for the issue of open file handles, but that’s another story…).

This patch is especially important for dealing with external tools (e.g. Git) which mark private files as read-only.
