REMOVE WRITE PROTECTION FROM USB DISK IN WINDOWS

                      

Sometimes we get a problem on our PC that when we try to copy something to our USB disk it shows an error that "The disk is write protected". If the problem is due to viruses or any error in Windows registry then it can be rectified. But someone has intentionally make it write protected by adding a password then it will not work.

Process:
1. Open registry Editor.
Also Check: How to open Registry Editor and Group Policy Editor
