Try right clicking on it in control panel. Go down the list and see if there is anything about write-protection. If not select properties at the bottom of the list and look through the tabs for w-p. Finally look on the device itself. Sometimes there is a smal switch. You may need comething long and thin to get at it. It is often well hidden. Hope this helped!

Arun Jaganthan-Whether your USB is write protected,If there is no switch or in registry u can't find Storage devices.

A common security concern at organizations is allowing users to plug in a usb flash drive, because they could so easily copy corporate data.

Since Windows XP SP2, you can disable writing to USB devices altogether using a simple registry hack. Here it is:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\StorageDevicePolicies]

"WriteProtect"=dword:00000001

You should also check your dive letter assignments (hit run and type diskmgmt.msc) Make sure that your drive letter is set correctly!

You can also just download registry tweaks to enable or disable writing to USB drives.

How do you remove write protection form E7-00?

To remove write protection from an E7-00 device, you typically need to check for a physical write protection switch or jumper on the device and ensure it's set to the unlocked position. If no physical switch exists, you may need to access the device's settings through its software interface and disable write protection from there. Additionally, ensure that the device is not connected to a host that has write protection enabled. Always consult the manufacturer's documentation for specific instructions related to your model.


How do you remove write protection on a smartphone?

To remove write protection on a smartphone, first check if the device has a physical switch for write protection, which is rare. If not, ensure the device is unlocked and that you have the necessary permissions to modify files. For Android devices, you can try connecting the phone to a computer and adjusting the settings in the file management app or using third-party software to manage permissions.
