Hi, Start your PC . Right click on the icon my computer on the desktop. Select Manage->Go to Disk Management. Here you can see your External Hard Disc partition . Format it and it will remove the write protection.
There is a write-protection tab on the mini sd card HOLDER. Every time you insert this into your PC or card holder, this tab slides to the write protect position. Either keep resetting, inserting & reinserting until it doesn't slide or tape it down.
There is nothing wrong with the mini sd card. Simply locate the write protection key and push it.
The mini sd card has some error: Go for a low level formatting.
The card has virus: Remove the virus. The link for the steps is present in the related link at the bottom of the article.

Assuming that you are using windows, go to drive management and see if the pendrive is detected. If so, right-click on it and format it. Or look for the HP USB Disk Storage Format Tool and use it.
Far too often these little things have an almost invisible read/write protect button on them. Look carefully, over the entire surface of the USB Flash Drive. You might have this switch turned to Write Protect, which means there is nothing you can do, until you turn it the other way, and allow the device to be written to.
