Do you know why your SD card becomes write-protected? Actually, the error "disk is write protected" is in a state of write protection, which aims to prevent the modification and deletion of important files on your SD card. As your SD card is write-protected, it is in a read-only state. Therefore, you cannot modify any new files to the SD card, delete files from the card, or format the write-protected SD card.

First, did you set a password for your micro SD card? If yes, then I think removing the password will solve the problem. Or, if there is no password, you can try inserting your SD card on other devices. But, then, if the two methods do not work, you must remove your micro SD's write protection.

How to remove your micro SD card showing the disk is write-protected? You can first try to check and toggle write protection through a physical switch. Here are some steps for you:

Step 1. Unplug the SD card from your computer.

Step 2. Check the SD card's side and locate the physical switch. If the physical switch is locked, move it to the unlock position.

After finishing the above steps, your SD card will be removed from write protection. But if this method is also unuseful, it is recommended that you can depend on a third-party software tool, EaseUS Partition Master, which is the safest and quickest method for users lacking relevant computer knowledge.
