Cannot write it's stuck in read only

Legacy SanDisk Products Connect Wireless Flash Drive
1

My new sandisk ultra USB 2.0 is write protected.
I tried to change it through command prompt ( attributes disk clean read only) but the issue is not solved

I tried to change it through regedit. But still issue is not solved.

I tried to change it through third party software. But it didn’t work.

Whatever I do, I can disable readonly but could not change Current read-only state to No.

Any help guys? What to do?

Someone is unable to make any changes to a file when it is in read-only mode. This can be extremely distracting, especially when working on urgent projects. Regardless of the cause—permissions, corrupted files, or outside limitations—such an issue needs to be fixed right away. BLR Tools Data Recovery Tool for Windows is a tool that can be used to recover files from drives that have become read-only because of corruption or file system issues. This tool can assist in recovery and regaining access if the problem is with an external device or document.

I use this tool to recover my Windows data files. This tool helps me a lot. Try the free demo edition first.

If your SD card still gets stuck in read-only state after you remove the read-only attributes using CMD, try editing the Windows registry key again. (This blog should walk you through: How to Fix SD Card Read Only Error on Windows? Try These Solutions) If nothing else helps, the last resort is to perform a reformat. However, the process is data-destructive. If you can access the files on the SD card, remember to copy all data to another drive beforehand. In case the SD card is inaccessible, use third-party software to recover your important files from the SD card to a safe location.
