SanDisk U3 Smart cruzer flash drive

I have a cruzer flash drive, 8gb, that is password protected. I haven’t used this in over a year, and can’t remember my password. I have exhausted my attempts to the password login screen, it tells me that I have to delete everything to reset the flash drive. I don’t want to loose these pictures, and I am not a real computer savvy person, so is there any way to get to my photos without deleting everything?

No.

Sounds like you did back the files up; to the flashdrive but now you can’t remember the password and that is an extremely common problem. There has to be a way in, tell us SanDisk.
