In recent years, USB memories have ceased to have the importance that they had until now because it is becoming easier to have at our disposal free storage space in the cloud to be able to share files, big or small.

Despite everything, not everyone makes use of cloud storage services, especially when it comes to sharing large files, files that generally take a long time to upload to the cloud and download. If we use USB memory sticks and we pretend evitar que alguien elimine su contents, the best we can do is add a write protection.

The first USB skewers included a small tab that allowed us to add a protection system against handwriting. In spite of everything, this option is no longer available in the most current models so we are forced to resort to Windows to protect the content.

If you have the need to remove write protection from a USB from Windows, these are the steps to follow. First of all, we must pay attention that to deactivate this protection we must enter the Windows' register, por lo que si no desea que su equipo be desactivado, debemos seguir punto a punto los puntos que detallo a continuación si accede a cualquier otro capítulo del registro.

  • First, we access the Windows Registry through the Cortana search box and introducing the term Registration.
  • Next, we go to the path HKEYLOCALMACHINE SYSTEM CurrentControlSet Control StorageDevicePolicies
  • In the right pane, double-click Write protection. In the Value data box we modify the 1 by 0.

Later, we close the application and re-offend our team so that the changes take effect.
