@@ronniepaulinc , I have the same problem, "Read-only state: Yes", while "Read-only: No" and my USB doesn't have any switch, it's very simple. It also worked fine last time I added files on it, so I can't understand what happened. Since then it just stayed hooked in my car's torpedo where I have the USB connection to listen to music in my car. Is it possible that that connection ruined it somehow? What more can I do now? Thanks a lot!
it means your disk is bad... This happens from not ejected them from the console command.... Never just pull a usb stick from your computer.. Eject it first!!!
Maybe a stupid question but - Once I have up the "Command Prompt-diskpart" and can see the "list disk" contents, how do I know which one is the flash drive? I have 6 to choose from here
i also encounter this problem... but today i finally found why it became like this... I use sandisk MICRO SD card... with a cheap MICRO SD adapter... I change it to my other adapter... in my case i inserted my micro sd card to my usb adapter... and it works now.... after a day of trying all the solutions... It's just the hardware problem for me... the adapter not the sandisk micro sd card is the problem
Still reading Yes..... In fact, if I use the same storage on another system, it doesn't show me write protect issue. but on my own system, it does. So what should I do

Hi, so the read only = No, but the Read-only state : Yes, is this correct? It might be that the volume is write protected, to check this: Type: diskpart hit enter, Type: list volume, hit enter. Type: select volume # (Choose the volume number of the card you want to check) Type: attributes volume, hit enter. If it says the volume is write protected, remove it. Type: attributes disk clear readonly, hit enter. Hopefully this helps.

Still write protected
Thank you! Finally fixed my sandisk cruzer, Don't understand how it write protected itself in the first place, but it works now.

it means your disk is bad or there is a physical switch to write protect it

Hi, did the instruction still has same problem. Thanks anyways mate
+Jian Xiang That's a shame, but always worth a go. Good luck.
nope followed all directions didnt work
Thanks!
Yeah! It Doesn't Change ! It's still Write Protected! so Now What?
Ain't working why? "Current Read-only state" still with yes
Read only state always says YES
Hi, so the read only = No, but the Read-only state : Yes, is this correct?
It might be that the volume is write protected, to check this:
Type: diskpart hit enter,
Type: list volume, hit enter.
Type: select volume # (Choose the volume number of the card you want to check)
Type: attributes volume, hit enter.
If it says the volume is write protected, remove it.
Type: attributes disk clear readonly, hit enter.
Hopefully this helps.
