Hi Friends:
Now guys i am telling you, that how to disable write protected on USB pin drive. Write protected pin drive didn't allow their user to access data and make it change. I personally suffered from this
situation. But Now i am sharing a few ways that how to disable right protected on pin drive. Now follow these.
Step Number 1:
Check for a physical switch:
Some USB drives have a physical locking switch that will prevent you from changing the files. Flip this switch to OFF if your drive has one, and try editing the files again.
Step Number 2:
Open the registry editor:
You can access the registry editor by entering regedit into the Search field in your Start menu. Windows 8 users can type regedit when viewing the Start screen.
Step Number 3:
Find the relevant entry. Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE. This folder can be found in the Computer section of the registry editor, in the left frame. Click the arrow next to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE to expand the folder.
