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.

I have a pny myself stuck like this and the pny utility failed and so did another low level format utility i tried and easeus partition master, it didnt do any good for it either. I will do some more rescearch and testing ill post if anything works Hi, I downloaded the patriot restore utility and when I chose 'Restore', (rather than 'Format', at the stat-up screen, the app performed a low level format and my USB stick is useful to me once again. Every other solution offered on this page, and others, failed to achieve this. Thank you Patriot and Paul Neuman.

Thank you.after 4 hours of tutorials this worked!! Hi all, I had the exact same problems with the exact same potential solutions that never worked for me. I found a utility tonight that fixed my 32GB PNY usb drive. It's called RecoverToolV2.00.28L0920. I had probably read at least 40 forums with the same problems and this was finally the fix. It allowed me to disable write protection and format the PNY drive and start over. I did lose all data but I didn't need it.

I just wanted to use it. The recovery tool he mentioned is for PNY drives 64GB and lower. It also repairs the write protection problem that originally caused the problem. It's located at: It's found in the Services tab under: USB Flash Driver Format Tool (Ufix-II).

It wasn't easy getting PNY to release the tool from in-house. I had to swear at a few people. They had a 32GB tool that could fix it but it would break the capacity on 64GB models.

There are also other available recovery/LLF tools on their site. The recovery program is for Windows only. It does NOT work on a Mac. I need a MAC solution, not a Windows solution.

No one I know uses Windows. Windows solution. No one I know uses Windows. Short answer: Go to a library, university, or cafe with Windows machines and do it from there. Else look up 'run Windows on Mac', run a virtual Windows on your MAC then format it.

I spent weeks just tracking down one to fix my drive and never seen one for Macs (not for PNY disks anyway). Also you should post the type of flashdrive you are trying to format.

Knowing the type of flashdrive is VERY important because LFF tools are meant to work on specific drives. Go here to see if one of the available tools might work for you as well. I just come across the same issue of write protection on my Kingston 64GB USB FLASH Drive.

Arsalan khan Thanks for the link, patriot tool worked for me after trying everything else, including the silicon power tool as it is a silicon power usb stick.

Hello, I found an accidental way to restore/reformat my PNY 16GB USB. After hours of searching an frustration, this is what worked for me: Before trying, make sure you backup all files to a safe place as this will delete all your files on the USB. Download free WinZip at Then open your USB file while in the WinZip dashboard, select all files, right click 'Delete' You can uninstall WinZip after your delete your files if you don't want the program. This reformatted my flash drive.

It is now working like new. Hi all, I had the exact same problems with the exact same potential solutions that never worked for me. I found a utility tonight that fixed my 32GB Pserioux usb drive. It's called RecoverToolV2.00.28L0920. Thank you very much.i'm very happy now.tank you again I had probably read at least 40 forums with the same problems and this was finally the fix. It allowed me to disable write protection and format the PNY drive and start over.
