If your SanDisk Cruzer USB is write-protected and won’t format, try these fixes:

Check for a lock switch – Make sure it’s off.
Use Command Prompt – Open diskpart, select your USB, and run attributes disk clear readonly.
Edit Registry – Set WriteProtect to 0 in StorageDevicePolicies.
Update Firmware – Check SanDisk’s support page.
Faulty Drive? – If nothing works, the USB may be damaged. Contact SanDisk or replace it.

Besides, you can also try connecting your pen drive to another Windows computer and changing file permissions in the Properties. Alternatively, use the Registry Editor to disable write protection.
