Make Bootstrap not Writable again

[plince]

I mistakenly made bootstrap-4.3.1.css writable and I don't seem to find the way to lock it again. Any suggestions? I prefer for bootstrap to be not writable as I don't trust muself not to mess with it...

Replace local scripts with read only scripts on a Content Distribution Network (CDN) like Stackpath.   https://www.bootstrapcdn.com/

In other words, replace this code:

<link href="css/bootstrap-4.3.1.css" rel="stylesheet">

with this code:

<link href="https://stackpath.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/4.3.1/css/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet" integrity="sha384-ggOyR0iXCbMQv3Xipma34MD+dH/1fQ784/j6cY/iJTQUOhcWr7x9JvoRxT2MZw1T" crossorigin="anonymous">

Thank you. I'll try that.

You have not stated your OS, I will therefore assume that it is Windows.

1. Open Windows Explorer and surf to the folder of your site

2. Right click the Bootstrap file and choose properties

3. In the Properties window, tick the Read Only box

Tank you. I'm on a Mac but I followed a similar approach and it worked!
