    All HDD have gone to write protected other than C:/ ????


    HI Guys
    I am posting this as a separate issue as i have another ticket open re other issues
    Other than my C:/ all my other HDD have gone to write protected and cannot fix it.
    I have tried diskpart attributes disk set readonly solution but didnt work.

    I have not installed anything on my side but as you can see from other ticket.
    My partner installed a link from their workplace to work from home.
    I think it installed some type of image but would it block me from my HDDs?

    I have no idea how to fix the HDD issue any ideas welcome please

    :)

    How To Format A Write Protected Flash Memory ?

    ¿You already tried this one?...

    Run CMD


    1. diskpart
    2. list disk

    Then in the 3º step, put the correct number of disk in the list for the usb flash (if it's listed in disk 3, then you'll have to write select disk 3).

    2. select disk #
    3. clean
    4. create partition primary
    5. select partition 1
    6. active
    7. format fs=fat32
    8. assign
    9. exit

    with that commands you will format the flash drive in fat32, if you have a large drive you can select also "format fs=ntfs" in step 7.

    good luck!
