You really do not understand?!?

Of course you can add or remove write protection on a file. (That is a standard
windows feature.) And one reason to add a move or more to tree: You have made a
tree from a set of games that do not include the move you like. So you add it.
If the statistics is is messed up after you do that, its a bug! (It should not
add any statistics at all for the new move, until it has learned from a
database.
