Ufix 2
I have tried literally everything to get it working and literally nothing is getting it out of write protection. I'm starting to get frustrated to be honest, because I honestly don't know why it's doing this and I can't find a single person that has ever had this problem to the extent that I do. I've already tried the following methods to get it out of write protection: *Flipping a switch - there is no switch on my flash drive. *Formatting the flash drive - I get the 'The disk is write protected.' Error whenever I try this. *Checking the flash drive for errors - I get the 'The disk is write protected.'
*Going into my flash drives properties and turning off write protection - write protection does not show up under my *flash drives properties. *Going into regedit, finding my StorageDevicePolicies, and setting WriteProtect to 0 - regedit claims WriteProtect is already set to 0. *cmd prompt: diskpart-> list disk -> select disk 1 -> attributes disk clear readonly - I get the message 'Disk attributes cleared successfully.'

However, nothing happens; I still get the error 'The disk is write protected.' Whenever I try to do anything. *cmd prompt: diskpart -> list disk -> select disk 1 -> clean - 'DiskPart has encountered an error: The media is write protected.' *Using the 'Usb Format.exe' - it can't find my flash drive. *Using HDDGuru to do a low level format - I get a bunch of errors like '1/31/2013 9:37:03 PM Format Error occurred at offset 159,318,016: 19 - The media is write protected'. *Trying to test with H2testw 1.4 - I get 'The media is write protected. Code 19' *HP USB Disk Storage Format Tool 2.2.3 - I get 'Device Media is write-protected'.
