Hi Wende,

Are you talking about an external hard drive? I would recommend you to run the Command Prompt and type the following commands:
Diskpart
List disk
Select disk n (n must be number of the drive)
Attributes disk clear readonly
Exit

Check if the write protection has been modified.

Hope this helps
