• 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).

• remove the adapter write protection and usb/microsd card

  Put a micro sd card into the adapter and since I opened it I'm impossible to delete files, format the drive e., Cup etc. When the drive is disconnected Ican manipulate the files which have been locked with the drive connected. The share in the properties of the drive button is untouchable and I tried some tools to format the troubed drive and nothing has worked so far. It affects all my usb ports no matter where I connect the sd adapter. How can I change the access point so E is not write protected?

  There is a little switch on the side of the SD card. Make sure that it is upward, to the terminals.

• Remove my external backup disk write protection.

  I can't save anything on my backup drive due to an error saying impossible because the disk is write protected. It happened when I updated to windows 7 November last month. Now I can't transfer all files on the disc. Help.
  I read an answer to my problem re regedit's local computer and system control etc. The problem is that I have storage in the registry but not in default extension just to hand right panel and without value. How do I manually write the correct version so I can remove my storage drive write protection.

  I did as you said in regedit as there was no policy of storage device, but it does not remove the write protection. My backup disk is a connected via external usb port. If I turn off the external hard drive and turn it on then I can move or copy folders on disk for a few minutes the write protection turns. It started only with windows 7. In vista, alol was ok re backups. I read on the manual for this player and they don't even mention protection against Scripture. How do I know which drive to remove the register write-protection? I think I solved my problem. I had my backup disk connected to the computer via a usb hub. I changed it to connect directly to the back of the computer and now the backup drive is not protected in writing and I can copy and send the disk to backup with no problems. Thanks for your quick reply

• 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.

• Remove the disks in the disk pool RAID on MD3220i

  Hello

  We have recently added 3 new HARD drive for our MD3220i and added to the evil through MDSM disk pool. We have to remove disks from the pool to add to a separate disk group.

  I have looked everywhere and have not been able to find anything on how to do it. Anyone here have experience with this, or at least know a reference that describes this process?

  Thank you!

  Hello, Tim.

  In the 8.10.05.60 firmware versions and up, there is an option to "Remove the Disks (Capacity) physical". From the GUI, the tab 'Storage Services & copy', right-click on the "cluster" (in the left tree view pane), and you should see a "Remove the Disks (Capacity) physical" option which will lead you through the process.

  

  Let me know if it works for you, or if you have any other questions. Have a great rest of the week!

• Remove the disks - task does nothing?

  I have a workflow that takes a vm (u_vm below) and an array of strings (u_ldevs below).  It removes the disks of the virtual machine that resident on data warehouses where the last 4 digits match a string in the table provided (u_ldevs).  (in case you're wondering, ldev is a 4-digit hexadecimal number that corresponds to the id of the LUN on the storage array, and we add at the end of each data store name)

  System.log messages in the loop to output the data you expect. all records to be deleted are correct and the appliance.  The task is executed successfully (and I see successful in vSphere), however the VM is unchanged.  I added a loop of debugging downstairs to iterate on the devices to validate the specification contains what I put in, but this lower node does not return any data, which makes me think I'm missing something really stupid.  Can someone take a look?

  System.log(u_vm.name)
  var spec = new VcVirtualMachineConfigSpec();
  spec.deviceChange = [];
  var ix = 0;
  
  
  for each (var device in u_vm.config.hardware.device)
  {
    if (device instanceof VcVirtualDisk)
    {
         if (device.backing instanceof VcVirtualDiskFlatVer2BackingInfo)
         {
              var dsname = device.backing.datastore.name;
              var possibleLdev = dsname.substring(dsname.length-4, dsname.length);
              for each (var ldev in u_ldevs)
              {
                   if (ldev == possibleLdev)
                   {
                        var devChange = new VcVirtualDeviceConfigSpec();
                        devChange.operation = VcVirtualDeviceConfigSpecOperation.remove;
                        devChange.device = device;
                        spec.deviceChange.push(devChange);
                        System.log("Found " + dsname); // this prints the datastore name
                        System.log("device: " + device.deviceInfo.label); // this prints the device label "Hard Disk #"
                   }
              }
         }
    }
  }
  
  for (var ix in spec.deviceChange) // have also tried a for each (var devChange in spec.deviceChange) ...
  {
    System.log('dev change:'); // this never prints
    System.log('dc op: ' + spec.deviceChange[ix].operation.value); // this never prints
    System.log('dev: ' + spec.deviceChange[ix].device.deviceInfo.summary); // this never prints
  }
  
  
  task = u_vm.reconfigVM_Task(spec);  // this run successfully
  

  I think that the problem is somehow related to the fact that vRO script properties table are not exactly identical to the normal Javascript table properties.

  A possible solution would be to collect device configuration specifications not directly in the spec.deviceChange property, but in a simple Javascript temporary table and assign the entire table to spec.deviceChange after the first loop.

  Something like this:

  System.log(u_vm.name)
  var spec = new VcVirtualMachineConfigSpec();
  myDeviceChanges = [];  // <- plain Javascript array
  var ix = 0;  
  
  for each (var device in u_vm.config.hardware.device)
  {
    if (device instanceof VcVirtualDisk)
    {
         if (device.backing instanceof VcVirtualDiskFlatVer2BackingInfo)
         {
              var dsname = device.backing.datastore.name;
              var possibleLdev = dsname.substring(dsname.length-4, dsname.length);
              for each (var ldev in u_ldevs)
              {
                   if (ldev == possibleLdev)
                   {
                        var devChange = new VcVirtualDeviceConfigSpec();
                        devChange.operation = VcVirtualDeviceConfigSpecOperation.remove;
                        devChange.device = device;
                        myDeviceChanges.push(devChange);
                        System.log("Found " + dsname); // this prints the datastore name
                        System.log("device: " + device.deviceInfo.label); // this prints the device label "Hard Disk #"
                   }
              }
         }
    }
  }  
  
  spec.deviceChange = myDeviceChanges; // <- assign collected device config specs at once
  
  for (var ix in spec.deviceChange) // have also tried a for each (var devChange in spec.deviceChange) ...
  {
    System.log('dev change:'); // this never prints
    System.log('dc op: ' + spec.deviceChange[ix].operation.value); // this never prints
    System.log('dev: ' + spec.deviceChange[ix].device.deviceInfo.summary); // this never prints

• How are GWX.exe successful removal, but still a few occurrences of the file on the disk - they protected?

  Being anoyed by the GWX-icon - and related unacceptable usage of my disk space and bandwidth (it has already reached 5GB of Win10 - junk and my SSD was almost full) - I tried to remove my system Win7 GWX. First I found 5 occurrences of the GWX.exe file (and some other files on) on my drive, after application of the GWX Panel I had up to 2 and the app is no longer active (and 5 GB of space free!). The use of some doesn´t of Mo wrong, but it looks a lot like a security breach - I m unable to delete these files & folders from the disk, even I m not able to change the security settings for these files.

  Someone at - it an idea how this weird State (super protected folders) can be removed or has been reached?

  Thanks in advance!

  You must take possession of these files or folders, then you give a full read/write access. It may be necessary to do with the commands in the console (takeown.exe and icacls.exe) while Windows Repair Mode.

• Remove my USB write protection

  Hello

  Today I was transferring a large file to my pen drive which (manufactured is unknown) and in the Middle the procces it says that my USB has the write protection, this is not the first time that I tried to transfer files to the device and before it worked like a charm.

  I tried the normal methods to remove the unit like going in properties, hack rededit method, the method diskstart of the cmd command, the method of formatting, physical locking switch.

  nothing worked, I tried even other pcs and always locked. any ideas?

  Hello
   
  1. is specific to this USB issue special?
  2 have you made any changes to the computer, before the show?
   
  As you have tried different computers and you still face the question, it is quite likely that the USB has some issues and not the operating system.
   
  Method 1:
   
  Run the troubleshooter of material and check.
  Open the hardware and devices Troubleshooter
  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/open-the-hardware-and-devices-Troubleshooter
   
  Method 2:
   
  Run a scan to check on the USB drive.
  Check a drive for errors
  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/check-a-drive-for-errors
  Important: While performing a disk check, if it detects bad sectors and trying to fix it, all the data available in this area may be lost.
   
  If the above is not enough, it is better that get you in touch with the store where you bought the USB for assistance related to this topic.

• 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.

  after it is deleted:

  also run the sfc/scannow command.

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929833

  Use the (SFC.exe) System File Checker tool to determine which file is causing the problem and then replace the file. To do this, follow these steps:

  1. Open an elevated command prompt. To do this, click Start, click principally madeprograms,Accessories, right-clickguest, and then clickrun as administrator. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or clickallow.
