• Cannot access the disk in the drive E:, please make sure that the drive is ready and the disk is not write protected.

  When I try to backup Quicken, I received the error: cannot access the disk in the drive E:, please make sure that the drive is ready and the disk is not write protected.  My last backup of Quicken was 16/07/2010.  I don't know why I can't back up now.  Is there a way to fix this?

  Why not save to a folder on your hard drive and burn them to a CD - R from there? I can't tell from the little you wrote if the problem is with Quicken (not work or you have incorrectly backup location) or with your CD - RW drive. How about more details to work with?

  Hi Saleh2506,

  You can try and remove the disc, remove the write protection (by reversing a tab on the disk), and then try again.

  If you do not have the valve on the USB, try the following steps to resolve the problem:

  1. Click Start , type regedit.exe and press ENTER.

  2. navigate to the following location:

  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrrentControlSet\Control

   

  3. control with the right mouse button and select new and key.

  4. call it as StorageDevicePolicies.

  5. click on StorageDevicePolicies and on the right pan right click and select new > DWORD and name it as WriteProtect.

  6 double-click it and set its value to 0.

  This will disable the write protection on USB/flash drives.

  Restart your computer and check to see if that fixes the problem.

• abduction flash/memory stick write protected disk

  Twice my disk flash (memory stick) has been 'write protect' lit (two different memory sticks). How can I turn off write protect?  There is no physical switch or tab on the memory stick. Write protect got turned on while I was using Windows Explorer to copy files from an external hard drive on the memory stick. There was no message during the copy process. Only, I discovered when I tried later again copy the files. Received the message that the drive was write protected.

• Flashdrive USB 3.0 write protection error?

  Good, then, one a few months ago I bought a new flash drive, a flashdrive Lexar 3.0 with 32 GBs. yesterday, I was copying a file to my flash drive, then he stopped at halfway with an error message. The error message:
  

  I started to get a little scared, so, as usual, I looked online for help. Apparently, other people have had the same problem. I tried all methods I thought to use the command prompt to change the Windows registry. Yet, none of them worked again! My last choice was to format the flash drive. Then, I started trying to format it. Then, a familiar message box popped up: "the disk is write protected". (As seen above). I was confused; Why my flashdrive write protected? I looked everywhere for some kind of help. I couldn't find anything.

  Other notes:
  -L' error does not come from my PC. I tried to use my sister's cell phone to get in shape, and he gave me the same error message.
  -My flash drive is not a write protection option. (It could, but I could not be aware of it).
  -J' tried various other programs to try to format.
  -There is no virus on my PC or a flash drive.
  -There are about 20 GB on the flash drive, so it is not complete.

  -J' already tried using the registry.

  I hope someone can help me, because I really don't want not to waste my money on another flash drive that will just give me the same error.

  Thank you once again!

  What follows is the best source of info that I found for USB thumbdrive problems:

  <>http://www.Uwe-Sieber.de/usbtrouble_e.html >

  USB stick seems to be write-protected:

  1.
  Check if the USB has a little swich for write protection.

  2.
  Windows can write protect USB drives too. Check out the registry under
  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\StorageDevicePolicies.
  The value 'WriteProtect' should be absent or set to '0'.

  3.
  Flash memory has a limited lifetime of about 100000 guaranteed write cycles. Most flash life much longer cells, but the cells that become defective must be replaced by reserve cells (defective block management). The flash controller handles this in the background. When all reserve cells are consumed, then the flash controller refuses all the write access. Then you can read your data and put the unit to recycling.
  This can happen even the drive was never even almost completely filled because the flash controller spread access write on all physical blocks to make sure that all cells are worn (wear levelling) equally.
  Unfortunately, USB flash drives have no standard mechanism to read their current state of health, as in hard disks. Therefore, always expect a USB flash drive to die at any time...

• Identified as write protected USB flash drive

  USB flash drive, identified as write protected, trying to create the boot USB back disk.

  Hi Mel,

  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.

  To remove the write Protection, try these suggestions.

  Method 1:
  I suggest you to follow the steps and check if the problem persists.

  a. open 'My computer'.

  b. right-click on the USB key and select 'Properties'.

  c. uncheck the 'read-only' if it is enabled.

  Note: Click Yes when the option appears saying 'apply changes to subfolders and files writable in this folder '.

  d. click on 'apply' and 'Ok '.

  e. try to delete the files.

  Method 2:
  If the problem persists, I suggest trying the steps and check if that helps.

  a. open the Start menu and in the search bar type regedit and press enter. The Registry Editor opens.

  b. navigate to the following location:

  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\StorageDevicePolicies

  Note: If the StorageDevicePolicies registry key does not exist, you must create it manually.
  c. highlight the Strategies of storage devicesand then create a new DWORD called (32-bit) as write protect.

  d. Double click on the key recording in the right window and set the value to 0 in the value data box , and then press the OK button.

  e. restart the computer and try formatting USB key.

• Flash drive, write protected after the use of Ready Boost
