    I did every steps to format the write protected pen drive by cmd , regedit, and direct format but still it is showing write protected. After "attributes disk clear readonly" it is not opening and when I clean the disk by cmd it give: " DiskPart has encountered
    an error: The request could not be performed because of an I/O device error. See the System Event Log for more information." So please help me to open it by removing the write protection.

    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!
