The problem here is unable to copy files into USB drive such as flash drives, memory card and Ipod. When your USB flash drive, or memory card is write-protected, you will receive the following error message:
Cannot copy files and folders, drive is write protected
Cannot format the drive, drive is write protected
The disk is write protected
Remove write protection or use another disk
Media is write protected
This may caused by virus or malware script which modified
the registry to make any drive write protect when connected to the computer, You can remove write protection from your usb flash drive or memory card using the below method:
1. Open Start Menu >> Run, type regedit and press Enter, this will open
the registry editor.
2. Navigate to the following path: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\StorageDevicePolicies
Note: If
the registry key StorageDevicePolicies does not exist, you will need to create it manually.
3. Double click the key WriteProtect in the right window and set the value to 0 in the Value Data Box and press OK button
4. Restart your computer and try copying files into your USB drives.
