When copying from cd the files will have read-only attribute set, just use the FileSetAttrib function on the files after copying to drive:

From help file

FileSetAttrib

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sets the attributes of one or more files.

FileSetAttrib ( "file pattern", "+-RASHNOT" [, recurse])

Parameters

file pattern File(s) to change, e.g. C:\*.au3, C:\Dir

+-RASHNOT Attribute(s) to set/clear. e.g. "+A", "+RA-SH"

recurse [optional] If this is set to 1, then directories are recursed into. Default is 0 (no recursion).

Return Value

Success: Returns 1.

Failure: Returns 0 if encountered any errors.

Remarks

The file pattern cannot contain spaces!

The attributes that can be modified with the function are + or -:

"R" = READONLY

"A" = ARCHIVE

"S" = SYSTEM

"H" = HIDDEN

"N" = NORMAL

"O" = OFFLINE

"T" = TEMPORARY

Don't argue with an idiot; people watching may not be able to tell the difference.

@gafrost,

I tink the question is not related with copying but running the script from a CD.

@rex

can you post a script that reproduce your problem? Not sure what you are really doing.

This is the code i use.

filecopy(@ScriptDir & "\Files\File.exe", @TempDir , 1)
runwait(@Tempdir & "\File.exe")
filesetattrib(@TempDir & "\File.exe", "-R")
FileDelete(@TempDir & "\File.exe")
exit

But it's not deleting the file..

How ever if i copy the script to the ramdrive and then run the script ones again it deletes the file.

Therefore i thourght that the script woulden delete files, if run from a readonly location. (not the file to delete but the script :) )
