(Solved) Cannot change program permissions to executable

This is pretty silly, but I can't change the permission of a .sh file. I've tried chmod a+x , or ticking it from the properties. But it ticks and immediately unticks. The file belongs to me and the user group.

Re: (Solved) Cannot change program permissions to executable

Where is the file located? And what are the mount options used on that partion? And what filesystem is it?

users implies noexec. Add exec after it, or stop using it. (you probably don't need it anyway, unless you are mounting/umounting it as your user all the time)
