I'm having trouble with my USB drive because it's write-protected. I can't format it or access my files. Does anyone have a solution for getting past this issue?

Try formatting it via the command prompt instead of just right-clicking and using the standard format option. Just Google 'format write protected flash drive using command prompt' for a step-by-step guide.

You’re likely facing a common issue where flash storage goes into read-only mode as it degrades. Try to recover any data you can from it and look into replacing the drive.
