  my USB is write-protected how to remove it?

  Hello

  What operating system do you use?

  Write protection is a feature found on many different types of media. When the write protection is turned on, you will be able to view the information on the disc or USB key, but you won't be able to write or transfer information to it.

  Write protection is an element of protection which prevents accidental deletion of important data. Sometimes turning off the write protection is as simple as uncapping the USB key to find a manual switch. If your player lacks an external switch, the procedure requires a few steps to complete.

  (a) turn on your computer and plug the drive after that your operating system is loaded.

  (b) open 'My computer' and the list of readers of research until you find your USB drive letter

  (c) right click on the name, then click 'properties '. Browse the tabs until you see the option to remove the write protection. If this does not work, proceed to the next step.

  (d) visit the website of the company for your USB key. Go to the help or support section and search for "write protect".

  (e) search the Internet for software that will remove the write protection. Download the program and install it on your computer.

  (f) open the software. Follow the instructions to remove your USB write protection.

• How to remove the floppy write protection

  How can I remove write Protection from a disk 1.3 MB

  Sometimes the switch 'cursor' on diskettes 3,5 "bit was removed (to create the disk read-only permanently). If this is the case, then just put a piece of opaque tape over the 'hole' (where the slider switch was)... and you'll be able to write to the diskette.

  If you hold the diskette if you are looking at the rear, the slider switch (or a hole where was the slide switch) is at the bottom RIGHT.

  Please note that the 3.5-inch disks came in various capacities (the two most common are 720 KB and 1.44 MB. If you hold the diskette, then you're looking at the back, then there will be a hole on the bottom LEFT, which is used to indicate the command what is the capacity of the disk. If my memory is good, there will be a hole in the bottom LEFT (when you see the back of the disc), for drives with capacity of 1.44 MB, and if no hole is on bottom LEFT, then the floppy drive is 720 KB.

  My point... If you need to put a piece of opaque tape over the hole where the playback cursor / writing has been (to make writable disk), don't forget to put tape over the hole at the bottom RIGHT (looking at the BACK of the disc... and 'back', I mean the side without label and where can be seen the axis of the disc).

  However, you can perform using Acrobat application.

  Your options vary depending on the type of password security attached to the document:

  If the document contains a permissions password, type it in the box, enter the password, and then click OK. Click OK again to confirm the action.
