We apologize for any inconvenience, but we've made the site read only while we're making some improvements
This message shows when I accidentally close my backup script of the SharePoint site. This massage is prompted by the SharePoint when a site is in a maintenance mode.
Resolutions
Method 1
- Go to the central administrator
- Application management –> Site Collection Quotas and Locks
- Select the site collection and change the locks information to Not Locked.
Some times this page looks like disabled thus you need to try the method two.
Method 2
$Admin = new-object Microsoft.SharePoint.Administration.SPSiteAdministration('https://www.site/sites/sitecollection')
$Admin.ClearMaintenanceMode()
This PowerShell Script changes the site collection back to normal.
