    Write-Protection


    Hey all, how its going... :)
    I have a "Micro SD Memory Card" and when i want to copy something at it, it gives me "The disk is write-protected.", and "Remove the write-protection or use another disk." as you see at first picture "Copy File".
    And as you see at second one, I have free space more than 1 GB, so its not a memory problem.
    What should i do to remove it, or to fix it, if anyone could help me, i would be thankful :).
    Thanks for this amazing website, helped me a lot at windows 7, and i learned a lot from it, thanks again . And keep it up.

    have you tried removing the data off of it and reformatting?

    I would just as a backup

    be careful - most the times I see something like this it's on the verge of being corrupted - these cards are not indestructible, I've had flash drives, xd, micro sd, and CF cards crash for no apparent reason

    goodluck!

    yea i guess, because it wasn't working for a while, i couldn't put anything at it, and somehow after formatting it, it worked again, but I'll try to do that again, thanks :).

    I tried to format it, but i couldn't, as you see at the picture.
    I guess i should just buy a new one.

    Try the small switch on the side of the SD card.

    I tried.. its not helping.. and i have a Micro SD.. but there is "Micro SD Adapter" so i can put it to laptop.. there is some solutions like:
    "Start > Run "cmd"

    type< diskpart

    type< list volume

    type< select volume #

    type< attributes disk clear readonly

    OR

    type<attributes volume clear readonly"


    but it didn't work with me, i have windows 7 Ultimate.
