Hello i want to teach u how to format a write protected flash drive or SD card, Some USB flash drives or SD Card have write protection which is designed to help users prevent unexpected data loss by refusing to delete or format. If you’re stuck with a write-protected USB drive that can’t be formatted, please don’t worry!
There are two ways to achieve this which i will be highlighting;
1. Using the regedit
2. Using a software
Now let's get to work with the first method
Using regedit

regedit

Double click on HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
Double click on SYSTEM
Double click on CurrentControlSet
Double click on Control
Double click on Storage
On the right hand side of the pane double click on (default) under storage tpye 0 under value data\
Click ok and restart ur system
After restarting try formatting the write protected drive
