There is no read-only attribute for a directory. What you're seeing is
a shortcut to allow you to set or clear the attribute for all files in
the directory.
Each time you display this tab of the properties dialog, you're
looking at a 3-state box in its third state: neither set nor unset. On
my computer that shows as a green blob in the box. Click it once, and
the box is empty, that's the NO state. Click it again and a check
appears, that's the YES state. If you click OK or Apply when the box
is in the YES or NO state, the read-only attribute is set or cleared
(depending on whether you're in YES or NO state) for EVERY file in the
directory. But when you bring the box up again, you will again see it
in the third state.
If you bring up the same box for the individual files, you'll see the
result of what you've done.
