Re: How can I wipe a "Read only" flash drive?

bigpup Thanks for those tips. However, even though I've tried all of them numerous times
in the past, I tried them again, to no avail. One of the almost new ones,American made, 64GB, locked up(read only)
was used for Ventoy. Also, at least 2 of the chips were Ventoy. However, thanks anyway. I just ...

Re: How can I wipe a "Read only" flash drive?

@wizard Have tried that-negative results. Also tried with several partition apps-all negative.
A couple of the flash drives are fairly new 64GB US made drives, and would hate to part with them. Somehow there's got
to be a cmd to do the job.

Re: How can I wipe a "Read only" flash drive?

mikewalsh The "dd cmd" you listed does not work to clear"read only". I have about 8 (combined) chips
and flash drives that somehow got corrupted to read only, that I want to wipe clean, but so far, have not found any app or cmd
that can do it. Believe me, I've tried a lot.
