![]() This starts a little program that allows you to operate within the holiest of sites of windows, the registry. You find that under ?Start?, the choose ?Run?. Thank goodness! Open the command line editor of windows XP (in my case, and in that case hopefully your, if I am to help you). The following came from David Kramer.KA at It fixed it completely. You can do a search on google to find other DOS commandsįound it! I have a feeling one of my co-workers (A Linux God who disdains us Windows Gurus) was playing a joke on me. ![]() eg, To copy all files and directories (except empty directories) from drive C to drive A, enter The write protect error still came up, but after clicking a couple of times I could see and open the files on the drive.Īnyway, once you’re in DOS you should be able to copy any files you want to another drive using the DOS ‘copy’ or ‘xcopy’ commands, and format the drive from DOS also. At this point I left the DOS window open and went back into Windows and clicked on the drive in Explorer. Now type the name of your flashdrive followed by a colon, eg, mine was drive letter K so I type K: ![]() Try this, in Windows XP – goto Start -> All Programs -> Accessories -> Command Prompt. What I found you can do is get into the drive through a DOS prompt. Also, I didn’t really want to reformat my drive. I also can’t see the StorageDevicePolicies setting in regedit. I was getting the same error with my flash drive.
