SOURCE: Remove Write Protection
Try this,
1.
Check out if the USB drive has a small swich for write protection. If its there try toggling the switch.
2.
Windows can all write protect flash drives. Check out this registry path,
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\StorageDevicePolicies.
You may find a key here on the right side by the name 'WriteProtect'. If it's not there this would not be the cause of problem. If it's there, make sure that the value is 0.
Please let me know if this does'nt work.
