How can I allow write permissions in shared folder?

I added a shared folder virtual machine - host. However I cannot save files in the shared folder from software like Word. I guess is a permissions rights problem because the message "There has been a network or file permission error. The network connection may be lost" is displayed in word.

I went to the folder in the virtual machine -> right click -> Properties and it has the Attribute "Read-only". I already unselected it and applied the changes. However it gets selected again automatically.

Does anyone have had this issue and knows how to solve it?
