I need help. After copying windows 7 to my sandisk usb, suddenly it's saying that it is write protected. Can't even format the usb. I did some of the usual way on how to remove write protected warning but it's still there. Can anyone tell me what to do really?

Hey there, @Hardman69!

Have you tried accessing your USB contents from another computer as well? I'd strongly recommend you to do so and see what happens. Another thing that might help you is this guide on how to remove write protection. There are several ways to execute the procedure, so make sure you try every possible fix. I'd also advise you to try taking ownership of the USB drive in Windows, if you haven't done this already.

Hope it works. Best of luck! :)
