Windows 7 Enterprise Service Pack 1
FrameMaker 2015 Release, 13.0.2.433

In the Hypertext window, I might have accidentally chosen the "Make View-Only" button.

Now, FrameMaker detects the file, which is on a server  as "View Only."  There is no .lck file for the offending file.  Help states that the keyboard shortcut to unlock a file is Esc Shift+flk (press and release Esc, press and hold Shift, and press flk (with lower-case "L"), which doesn't make sense to me.  This runs RoboScreenCapture, which is not wanted.

	Esc+flk (press and hold Esc and press flk) runs RoboScreenCapture, which is still not wanted.

	Esc flk (press and release Esc, and press flk) also runs RoboScreenCapture, which is still not wanted at all.

I have:

	ensured that the file is not set to "Read-only" in Windows

	closed the file and reopened it

	restarted the workstation

	tried to save the file as .mif, which is not allowed
