I have SanDisk Cruzer 16GB Pen drive. Certainly, I am unable to copy any data into it (You feel that this question is duplicate. but, my situation is different.). It throws an error message as

This device is write protected.

I have googled and found two possible solutions such as,

  1. Use DISKPART to remove this error.
  2. Add attribute in RegEdit...

In my case, both of the solution doesn't help me. And also, I have noticed when I ran DISKPART as: my pen drive is in Current Read-only state: yes not Read-Only: yes.

Could any one please help me to resolve this?

Did you already check this -> Sandisk USB drive is read only ?

Checked several USB-sticks incl. SanDisk, and found that DISKPART SET READONLY and CLEAR READONLY changed undoubtely the both definitions from -> no into -> yes, and back into -> no .

If not yet tried, and you would like do it after taking a backup of the data, what would the statuses be/become if first applying SET READONLY, and then back with CLEAR READONLY ...
