Steps Method 1 Unlocking an SD Card 1 Place the SD card in the palm of your hand or on a flat surface with the label facing up. 2 Look for the micro sd card lock switch on the upper-left side of the SD card. The lock switch may be a tiny white or silver tab that juts out from the left side of the SD card. If you are using a micro- or mini-SD card, there will be no lock switch on the actual SD card. Instead, you will be required to insert the SD card into an SD card adapter, which will contain a lock switch. 3 Slide the lock all the way up. The write-protection status will now be removed from your SD card.[1] Method 2 Formatting an SD Card using Windows 1 Insert your SD card into your Windows computer using an SD card reader or adapter. 2 Click on “Start” and right-click on “Computer.” 3 Select “Manage” from the list of options displayed. The Computer Management window will display. 4 Click on “Disk Management” below “Storage” in the left pane of Computer Management. All the storage devices you are currently using will display in the middle pane. 5 Right-click on the storage device you want
prevent the memory card from being erased or wiped. Not all types of memory cards will feature these; SD and Memory Sticks often include the write protect switch. Step 1: Check the Switch SD Cards have a physical switch on the side of them which sets the write protection of the card. If the write protect switch is in the locked position, then it will not be possible to write to the card. It will, however, be possible to read the photographs from the card if they are already there. Mini and Micro SD cards do not feature a switch, however, when they are placed in the SD card adaptor to fit into your computer, there is a lock switch. Some people mistakenly believe that this is to lock the card in position, however, this is actually a write protect switch. When using the adapter, you shouldn't touch the switch. Step 2: Repair the Switch Sometimes the switch can break off the memory card, which will leave the card in a locked position. This will mean that you won't be able to unlock the card because there's no switch. If this is the case, then it's fairly easy torepair the switch. The switch itself does not do anything inside the card; it is simply a piece of plastic which hits a switch inside the camera or reader. This means that it works in exactly the same way as the switch on an old 3.5" floppy disk, or the tabs on a VHS tape. Repair the switch by simply sticking a piece of tape over the correct section of the switch. Once this is fixed in place, the switch will be depressed correctly. This will mean that the switch is no longer write protected and it will be possible to write photos to it once again. Step 3: Remove Protection It's also possible to protect individual files on your camera's memory card by selecting an option in your camera's menus. This protection will need to be removed before the individual files can be removed or adjusted. If you're not sure how to do this, look through the instruction manual of your computer. Step 4: Format Card If you are having problems removing the memory cards write protection, but have already adjusted the physical switch, then another option is to format the card. Put the card in your computer and format it to Fat-16 or
