Locked Micro SDHC cards
As a Windows user who dabbles with Pi I have several micro sdhc cards with Pi operating systems written on them that are locked. They won't format as they are reported as being write protected. Neither will they wipe or clear their attributes using Diskpart (though it reports that the attributes have been cleared).
The files on the cards show in Windows & in Pi but they only load so far then stop.
This seems to be a common problem to which no solution has been found.
How can the lock/write protection be removed?
"This seems to be a common problem to which no solution has been found."
That seems to be an accurate summary of the related discussions in these forums over the past decade or more.
