NIPackage | BuilSpecs | Source File Settings [ ReadOnly attribute ]

Hi all, 
 
I have tried to build a NIPackage using the command window and "nipkg.exe". The issue is the VIs that are deployed through the package are not writable. I have tried the below-mentioned ways to make the VIs writable but still unable to save the deployed VIs. Reference Link for the below methodsNote that the original source file's read-only attribute is false throughout the process. 
 

Method1: Instruction file is excluded [absent on the disc]. In help manual, it is clearly mentioned that if there is no "Instructions" file the default value of readonly attribute is                          "allWritable".

 
Method2: I have placed a "Instructions" file by omitting the file extension in the data directory with the below-mentioned content. 
File:    <instructions>
    <targetAttributes bitness="64" readOnly="allWritable"/>
</instructions>
 
But both the above-mentioned process didn't help in making the files writable. 
 
Question1: Can we make the deployed VIs writable?
Question2: How can we achieve this If we are building the package using command window operations?
Question3: Also while building an installer, We can mention this property in "Source File Setting" page of the installer build specs. Do we have such option in package build specs?
