Hi Ankon,
Do you have important data on the drive? To remove write protection, I would try the Diskpart command from the Command Prompt. Try this:
diskpart
list disk
select disk n (where n is the number of your USB flash drive)
attributes disk clear readonly
Press ENTER after every command. If write protection still stays, check the article below:

Hope this helps
