Hi,

I think the only easy procedure is the following one:

  • in File Explorer create new directory, for example C:\my_read_only_models
  • move all "read only" models into C:\my_read_only_models
  • in File Explorer set "read only" access rights to C:\my_read_only_models
  • add following options into config.pro

search_path C:\my_read_only_models

override_store_back NO
save_object_in_current NO
