Hi there,

to remove write protection

use these steps:


Get into the Registry - Press Start -> Run, enter regedit, press Ok


. Click on My Computer.


Then press File -> Export, give some file name to backup the registry.

Just incase you ever need to rollback.


. Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SYSTEM/CurrentControlSet/Control/StorageDevicePolicies

. In the right pane select "writeprotect"

. RESET the value to '0'


Thanks
