Sd cards

Hello,
how to remove the write-protection from my sd card

Looks like a misunderstanding.

This section of the forum is about solid stated drives (ssd) not sd cards.

Slide the write-protect tab at the side of the card so that it's as close as possible to the end of the card that has the metal contacts.

sminla - a long long time ago in a galaxy far far away we used to do that with 3.5 inch floppy disks. :lol:

EDIT - Now that I think about it, I seem to recall using a tiny piece of tape to cover a small opening in a corner of a 5.25 inch floppy disk in order to protect the contents of the disk and keep important data from being overwritten. That would have been back in 1984 when I bought my first pc. There were no hard drives. The DOS operating system and other software were all on floppies. Heaven help you if you accidently inserted the wrong disk into the floppy disk drive.

The more things change, the more they stay the same...

Put a piece of tape over the card so that the side of the card where the switch is supposed to be is flush.
