Non-Project Files Protection dialog

This dialog appears when you try to edit non-project files: library sources, external sources and so on. Such files are intentionally protected from modification. For example, it is not recommended that you change library classes as you are supposed to reuse them as is.

ItemDescription

All options are effective during the current session, once the IDE is restarted, protection will be re-enabled. Also, you cannot change your decision for a particular file within the current session.
