What settings should be used in field-level security to make a field editable to all profiles?

Disable Visible and Read-Only
Disable Visible but Enable Read-Only
Enable Visible but Disable Read-Only
Enable Visible and Read-Only

The correct answer is: Enable Visible but Disable Read-Only

To make a field editable to all profiles, the correct settings for field-level security are to enable visibility for the field while disabling the read-only option. When a field is set to "Visible," all users with access to that object can view the field. By disabling "Read-Only," you allow users the ability to edit the field. Enabling the field and ensuring that it is not read-only combines the requirement of visibility and editability, making it accessible for updates and data entry by all profiles. This is essential for scenarios where you want every user interacting with that specific data field without any restrictions on editing capabilities. Other configurations, such as disabling visibility or setting the field as read-only, would prevent users from editing the field or even viewing it, which would not meet the requirement of being editable for all profiles.
