If you're getting that message, then there's a switch on the flash drive to turn on the write protection and disable it as well.

... aswell as the switch there may be an entry in your registry preventing write to your usb pen drive.

... copy the below into "notepad" and save as type "all files":

****************************************************************

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\StorageDevicePolicies]
"WriteProtect"=dword:00000000

**************************************************************

... the file name must also have .reg extension eg

EnableUSBWrite.reg

... once saved right click it option "merge"

... your done!
