• How can I remove a USB write protection

  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.

  I hope this helps.

• 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).

• Unlock the USB write protected

  Windows 8, there is a 32 GB USB drive more writable after working very well.  Other work of sticks USB OK.  Indication to keep the disk is read-only, and there is no way to physically write protect.  Possibly BitLocker live upwards, perhaps out before you remove the drive safely?  A registry cleaner remove a key by mistake?

  I work with Bitlocker readers every day and I saw that some readers become read just in the middle of copying the files to them. I don't know what is the cause, but I was not able to find all the settings that enable or disable it.

  As a solution, I was able to write to the drive by connecting it to another server. If I connect the same drive on the server it was read only after connection to another server, it is always read-only. Therefore, he must have something on this server which makes the drive read-only. I will search the Web and see if anyone has figured this out.
