Windows 10: How to remove Media is Write Protected , with a twist?

I recently had an issue where I blue screened and tried everything on the internet to fix it. My solution then was just to reinstall windows on another drive and use the drive windows was on for storage. Originally Windows 10 was on a 2TB m.2 and I had a 500 gb m.2 I used for storage. I ruled the 2 tb m.2 to be the problem, so I reset my motherboard, unplugged all peripherals, and put the 500 gb m.2 where the 2 tb m.2 was. I then reallocated and reformatted the 500 m.2 and installed windows on it with an external usb drive. Putting windows on the 500 m.2 worked and I posted and booted with no

Why can't I remove write protection from Dell USB recovery media?

I have tried all the methods listed almost everywhere online to try and remove write protection from this dell usb recovery media and none worked. I called dell but they said it can't be removed. Is there a way to do it?

The recovery media contains windows 7 home premium.

 

The media is write-protected

Good morning, I have issues removing write-protection from my USB flash drive. It has no hardware switch for enabling/disabling write-protection, • diskpart

• list disk

• sel disk 2

• attrbites disk

• Current Read-only State : Yes

• attributes disk clear readonly reports "Disk attributes cleared successfully"

However, trying to clean and/or format the drive reports an error of "media being write-protected/read-only" again.

Creating a key in registry for removable storage policies doesn't work either. Even after changing policies and rebooting, the flash drive seems stuck in its read-only state. I'm desperate.

Thank You in advance

 

Bitlocker making removable media Write Protected

I work for a company who handles secure data. We use bitlocker to encrypt the drives on all company machines, as well as all removable storage devices (USB Flash drives, External Hard Drives, ETC.). This works seamlessly for all built in storage, but for
removable media, it is forcing write protection on the drives after encryption, even after the drive is unlocked using the Bitlocker passcode. We still want to maintain the enforcement of encrypting anything that may contain private company data, including
all removable storage devices, but want to still be able to write to them after they are encrypted. Is this normal? Is there any way to have all removable storage devices encrypted but disable write protection once they are unlocked?

In Group Policy, our status for Deny write access to removable drives not protected by Bitlocker is enabled. When a user plugs in an external storage device, it prompts them to encrypt their device using bitlocker before they are permitted to write to it.
It then encrypts it if the user chooses to do so, or only allows read access if they refuse. Once it is encrypted, the device is writable at that time, but once it is removed and plugged back in (To the same machine, or another machine in the same network/organization),
it prompts for the password that was set. Once the password is entered, it shows the device as being unlocked, but when you try to write to it, it says that "This disk is write protected."

Additionally, if it helps, we do not push any other removable media GP bitlocker related options such as 'Deny write access to devices configured in another organization' or 'Allow access to BitLocker-protected removable data drives from earlier versions
of Windows', so it would most likely be whatever the default setting is. However, every removable media device we have tested with has been new, empty, and unencrypted until into we plug into one of our machines and encrypt with Bitlocker. Still, could adding
one of these policies (Or maybe another I am not familiar with) as 'Enabled' potentially resolve the issue?

Any help would be greatly appreciated, as I am running out of things to try, and can not find any threads where people have run into this issue.

Thanks!
