Re: How to remove the write-protection in my FLASH DRIVE?
-
USB drives can be write-protected by modifying the StoreageDevicePolicies Registry key and WriteProtect Registry value.
- Start>run>regedit to open Registry Editor. and press control+F to open the find dialogue box and type "use device" or "driverdesc" to open usb mass storage device. right click on it and delete. This will set the policy value to 0. then insert your usb device. It will work fine.
- Remember: do not delete any unknow files in the registry as this will make some programes not work as usual.
