    Remove Write Protect Photo Albums


    I have "googled" and read thru many Q&As but have not been able to match my question. Where do I access the "write protection" option to turn it off so I can delete photo albums from my phone?



    Process:

    Select Galaxy JStart from "start" menu

    Click on DCIM

    Click on NAME OF FOLDER

    Copy files to "This PC" on my desktop


    Right click on NAME OF FOLDER

    Select Delete


    The message says: "Are you sure..."

    Select YES


    The next message says: Cannot delete NAME OF FOLDER. The storage is write-protected. Remove the write-protection and try again.


    Thanks

    Alice

    :)

  3. photo albums

    Hi,



    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



    1. Could you please briefly explain the procedure that you have followed to setup an album using Windows 10?
    2. Which application are you using to display the album?
    3. Which version of Windows is running on your device?


    Refer the article Which Windows operating system am I running
    to provide the details.



    If you’re referring to Photos app, I suggest you to refer the section “Help the app find more photos” from the article
    See all your photos
    for the steps.





    Hope it helps.
