For some stupid reason I shut my laptop with my SD card still in it (this has never been a problem before) and went to town when I came back my SD card is now write protected and I can't put anything on it! It is really pissing me off and I don't know how to remove the write protection but I really need to be able to work with my SD card again....if I format the card will it fix it? Please help!
It's a well known phenomenon, a google search might help you,

Try putting your card name first into the search box to get more positive hits for your brand.
It got fixed now...but thank you for your advice...turns out this little grey thing on the SD card caused it to lock but I still don't know how it happened in the first place...
lol, that little grey thing is called, wait for it, have you guessed it yet, it's gonna kill you, ok, drum roll.........
The lock/unlock switch, no honest, it really is :D
yeah I didn't even know that switched existed until today...it's so small...
but mine wasn't locked in the first place:confused: but after locking it and un locking it, it started to work again:)
cheeky switches
