File may be locked by another process or have been set Read Only - after install

I have the exact problem as described in this post: 

 

http://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/autocad-mechanical/learn-explore/caas/blog/upandready.typepad....

 

My question is how to change this setting after it has been already installed. Is there a config file that controls this or a registry setting? I can give all users write permissions to the c:\Program Files\Autodesk folder but for security purposes i would hate to consider that.

 

I have changed the settings in the deployment package to point to the User's profile to move forward just would like to know how to fix the existing.

 

Thanks! 

Steven

You need to uninstall and reinstall the software . This solution I derived from the following blog post...
