Hello,
Try this:
1. Put in your USB stick 2. Right click "My Computer" and select "Manage" 3. Expand "Storage" and go to "Disk Management" 4. Right click your USB drive (i.e DISK X down the bottom) and select "Properties" 5. Select "Policies" tab and select "Optimise for Performance" 6. Click "Ok" to save.
But in the most likelihood, your drive has reached its write limit (i.e. broken)
Regards

Some USB flash drives have a switch or button on them to enable/disable the write protection. If it does not have a switch then it was either done with software and you will need said software to switch it, or the drive is corrupt and no longer usable.
