Hello! I have problem with my Kingston USB flash drive. Namely, when I want to format it I get message which say that it cannot be formatted because it is right protected. I know that this is for you just another flash drive problem and you probably will know what I should do, but I hope that you understand that this is big problem for me.

Hello! First of all, check if the protect switch on the side of USB flash drive is closed. Try to move it and after that try to format it. If this does not help you, then plug USB flash drive and go to device Manager and uninstall it from there, after that plug it out. Then reboot your system and plug flash drive again and computer will recognize it, so, try to format it now. If this does not help, too; then I think that you will need to buy new flash drive because yours is damaged.
