Bought 4 PNY 16GB USB thumb drives and every time I try to format them, the computer kicks back that they are write protected. Have tried ALL the solutions listed and explained in the 10 forums here, and nothing works to disable the write protection on my machine. Tried diskpart, Command Prompt, and Computer Configuration and nothing resolves my problem. BTW, there's no switch on these USB drives. Anybody know of a fix?

My machine is Dell Optiplex 960 w/6 Gb memory. Thanks for reading my post and possibly helping me, 73s. Unfortunately when I tried those options earlier on, none solved the problem of disabling the write protection on those USB flash drives. Tomorrow I'll give it another try.

BTW, when I placed those same drives into my Windows 7 machine, it would allow me to format and copy folders to the drives. But when inserting those drives into the Windows 10, it won't allow me to copy anything to those drives. It's weird and has me climbing the walls, (except for now; I'm getting ready to watch a movie and relax, lol). Also, thanks sir for placing my post in the right forum; I failed to use my brain.lol And thanks again for replying to my post. Edit: btw, my machine is Dell Optiplex 960 with Win. After trying the possible solutions in posts 2, 4 and 5; still write protected USB sticks.

If I ever come up with the solution to my dilemma, I will come back to 'tenforums' to post the results. I am sure there will be others who will run across this problem and or the fix. Until then, thanks to you all for the help. Great site here for those who have Windows 10.

73s and thanks again.If they all do it I would contact PNY and look into an RMA. I have only had this once and Patriot emailed me a low level formatting tool not available on the Net to fix it, I thought Ufix was the same type of LLF Tool. Adsense click bot download pc.
