Make read-only file read write from commandline windows

Question

How can I make a read-only Windows file read+write for Everyone from the command line. I searched CACLS but the examples aren't great.

The attrib command:

here is an example

attrib -r file.txt

This would remove the read-only attribute from the file called file.txt
