First try to see is there is any lock in your media device or adapter and see if its not locking the media..it looks like slide switch .for one end it will lock the media and when you switch to other side you have the full access
but if that's not the reason it might be the problem with registry
Use the Registry Hack to Disable Writing to USB Drives
Here is the link .just download the zip folder and after opening the folder you will find a file just double click on it..

Is there any switch on the flash drive? Is the drive full? If not it might be an idea to try uninstalling and reinstalling the driver. To do that try:

  • Plug in the flash drive
  • Right click on My Computer
  • Choose Properties
  • Switch to the hardware tab
  • There should be a button like "Device Manager". Click on this.
  • Find your flash drive on this list. Right click on it and choose uninstall.
  • Unplug the flash drive, wait a few seconds then plug it back in.
  • You should now get a new hardware wizard dialog from which you can reinstall the drivers.
Use below link if above solution doesn't work

If your USB Drive does not have a slider or switch
You can use it in other computers
You are running Windows Vista
You get a Write protected message when trying to remove or add things from your thumb drive then follow these instructions:

1) Click Start

2)Type regedit in the search at the bottom of the pop-up and hit enter.

3)Click on the arrow sign next to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE

5)Click on the arrow sign next to SYSTEM

6)Click on the arrow sign next to CurrentControlSet

7)Click on the arrow sign next to Control

8)Click on the arrow sign next to StorageDevicePolicies

9)Right click on WriteProtect and click modify.

10)If the value data is 1 change it 0 and click ok.

11)Repeat steps 7 to 10 for ControlSet001, ControlSet002, and ControlSet003 if you have these they will be in a folder just above the Control folder.

12)Close Registry editor and restart the computer.
