This trick is very useful if you have virus in your computer and want to copy files from a USB Drive but don’t want to transfer virus to the USB.

your computer with administrative rights.
First click on Start button and type “Regedit” in Run
option.(win key+R)
Here locate the location to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMCurrentControlSetControl

Here in right side panel, click right to create a key with the name
“StorageDevicePolicies”.

again right click to create new DWORD value then label it
“WriteProtect”. Set its value to “1″.
 But again to enable writing, set its values to “0″.


THATS IT
