Hi.
It means that these folders are read-only.

Thanks,
The problem here that I can't copy or paste any folders in any folder!
How can I make folders read and write?

Run sudo dde-file-manager in the terminal.
With root rights you can write on every file/folder

Do you have this problem in your home directory?
If yes,try this: sudo chmod -R 777 /home/YOURUSERNAME/
This gives read,write and execution rights to every file in your home directory and to everyone.
WARNING: Do not do this if this computer has other users!
They could access your files then but if the computer has no other users,it's the easiest solution.

Unfortunately, it isn't working.
z1z0@Z1Z0:~$ sudo chmod -R 777 /home/z1z0/
[sudo] password for z1z0:
chmod: cannot access '/home/z1z0/.avfs': Permission denied

Please post the content of your /etc/fstab
If root doesn't have writing rights your partition is probably mounted read only.

You should have root access everywhere.
The only thing I know when you haven't root access is when the partition is mounted read-only
That can be changed in the /etc/fstab file.
