  1. System disk read only


    Hi,

    I have 2 SSDs on my PC.

    The SSD where system is installed is on read only. I uncheck in Properties menu and it's the same when I reload.

    I can't put any Origin games on C:\ for example, because it tells me that is read only.

    I'm with my administrator account.

    Can you help me please ?

    Can't safely remove external disk

    In reference to the steps of your suggestions:

    • The issue is specific to the particular disk and it started after I've used the disk to save the System image backup (created with the Control Panel > File History tool).
    • I didn't disable any windows Service. I'm just wondering if there is any to disable.
    • Safe boot with networking, or clean boot doesn't resolve the issue.

    Thank you.

    Remove spare hard disk as system disk

    Thank you for your reply.

    There's a possibility that your HDD was detected as OS drive during the Windows installation. To remove your HDD as system disk, we suggest reformatting it. To do so, please follow the steps below:

    • Open Disk Management.
    • Right-click on your HDD, then select Format.
    • On the Format windows, type your preferred Volume label,
      File system (NTFS is recommended)
      , Allocation unit size (leave as Default).
    • Check the Perform a quick format option, then click
      OK
      .

    Note: Please back up your files before reformatting the drive.

    Feel free to post back should you need further help.
