The download resource read-only problem

Recently, I download the STM32Cube firmware examples for STM32H7 Series,  but when I extract it, all the things are read-only. And there is no use for me to change the properties of the document, unclicking the read-only option. Have everyone meet the same issue?

Thank you so much!

Yes, so user file manager and right-click to change the properties on the entire directory tree.

Unpacked manually, or with CubeMX?

Thanks, I have right click to change the properties when it is .zip file. But when extracting the zip file, the documents inside are still read-only. Every time I change the file properties, when I open it, it also shows read-only. I open it with Keil MDK.

Is it normal for everyone to download the examples with read-only? 

Thank you so much!

If you let CubeMX download and unpack the files into the repository it doesn't mark them as read only.

I unpack things to a directory tree, and change the attributes as needed, I'm not continually pulling new copies from the ZIP file.
