Description of the Issue

I use a windows feature to access NFS shares:
2019-11-23_211117

Opening a file with from the share without write permissions for the group "other"
2019-11-23_211327

Means I cant edit it in N++, but I can edit without issues in Windows Notepad
2019-11-23_211350

If I change the permission
2019-11-23_212137

Then it works, which is what I have been using the workaround this issue for now
2019-11-23_211441

Steps to Reproduce the Issue

Included in screenshots above

Expected Behavior

File to be editable without changing permissions

Actual Behavior

File is not editable unless write permission is added for the group "Other"

Sorry, but from your explanation the expected behavior is exactly what npp seems to do, to mark the buffer not writable.

well no, the expected behaviour is to be able to write to it because i am the owner and owner has full permissions as the screenshot shows, which is why windows notepad has no problem editing the file.
edit: to be more accurate, i am accessing the nfs share as root so although i am not technically the owner i am root which is why i can change permissions etc

because i am the owner

I didn't get that from your previous post but yes, if you are the owner then you should be able to edit it.
