It is also useful for anyone to prevent virus infection in usb by write protecting root folder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
straycat19 Posted August 28, 2018 Share Posted August 28, 2018 2 hours ago, Vinnu said: How to write protect & unprotect pan drive via software There is one caveat that needs to be remembered when using software, anything made by man can be broken by man. So if someone really wants access to your data they will figure out a way to get to it. If I just want to write protect a drive I buy drives with a write protect switch, like the Kanguru drives.

I4rg£8all8ag Posted August 28, 2018 Share Posted August 28, 2018 I use True Crypt to encrypt my USB drive's, but if you want something simpler try GiliSoft USB Encryption, as this use's 256-bits AES on-the-fly encryption. If you want a lifetime licence PM me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You joked by your PAN DRIVE, but you still use PAN, PAN, PAN. So please, be sincere with yourself. Every pen drive / hdd /sdd [every storage tool] use RAM not ROM. So when you use any storage device, anyone can format it. If you need to secure your data forever, you must use DVD and you can set a password for use. [DVD life may 5-10 years?] If you have huge data you can zip this data and divide in small parts and then you write in DVD. If you have Blue-ray write, you use it. I think, some software have solution for you [To write-protected USB with password which not allowed to format usb]. But every trick has a solution. You also googling for this topic.

dcs18 Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 It's quite likely that your AntiVirus already has some robust options for write-protecting . . . . . and much more. My previous NOD32 had some lovely options — my present ESET Endpoint has some superior options which I use in the Enterprise environment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rajeesh Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 Even without software also you can do it. format your pendrive with ntfs partition. now right click the pendrive go to properties - security tab - edit - remove all the users Now Click add - advanced - Find now - select everyone - OK - now select deny for write - click ok - ok Thats it. Now your pendrive is read only. if u want to make write then tick full control under allow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
