Hey there, wayfarer_Tonmoy.
You could check out this tutorial as well: https://ccm.net/faq/33935-how-to-format-a-write-protected-usb-flash-disk Otherwise, here are the instructions on how to try and remove the write protection via CMD:
Open CMD and type:
diskpart
press "enter"
type:
list disk
press "enter"
then type:
select disk x (where x is the number of your USB flash drive - use the capacity to figure out which one it is)
press "enter"
type:
attributes disk clear readonly
press "enter"
type:
clean
press "enter"
type:
create partition primary
press "enter"
type:
format fs=fat32 (you can use ntfs instead of fat32 if you want)
Wait for the process to finish.
Hope that helps.
