I'm running Windows 7 Home Premium SP1 64 bit on an Intel HP Pavilion dv6. I have a PNY 16 GB USB drive that is now useless because it has somehow become 'read only'. Did this happen with bitlocker? I did not knowingly run bitlocker, and when I type it in the serch bar it doesn't find it, so my version may not even have bitlocker? I've read all the other similar questions and tried what they said. So far I have added: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE SYSTEM CurrentControlSet Control StorageDevicePolicies registry key and the DWORD WriteProtect with a value of 0 and rebooted.
1 - This will block write processes on USB Flash Drives. An alternative would be to delete the Registry key WriteProtect completely to enable both read and write processes. A restart or log off is required before the changes take effect. Write protection fix on usb Hi I thought I would let you know how I got rid of that sneaky write protection on my 16gb unkown brand usb pen drive. First go to device manager find drive and uninstall.

I have set permissions to full control for this disk, I have used DISKPART to Clear the readonly Attribute, then rebooted but nothing has worked. When I use DISKPART to list the attributes for this disk, it says: Current Read-Only State: YES Read-Only: NO So I guess the Read-Only attribute was cleared, but it is still in a read-only state. How do I change the state?
How do I prevent this from happening again? Someone said they took the disk offline and then back online and that cleared the read-only state, but when I tried to take it offline, I get a virtual disk service error: 'The operation is not supported on removble media.' Any help would be greatly appreciated. Hi Gary, 'The disk will be in a read-only state if its read-only attribute is set. However, a disk can be in a read-only state even if its read-only attribute is not set, if the underlying hardware is read-only. For example, if the LUN is in read-only state, or if the disk is a virtual hard disk that resides on a volume that is read-only, the underlying hardware is read-only, and therefore the disk is in a read-only state.' You cannot change the state of disk using diskpart or, windows tools.
Like in case of USB disk if it is locked nothing can be done. You need to contact PNY for this help. We cannot help you here.
