The media is write protected.

[kittensinurface]

Hello, thank you for your help. I have a PC, and a NAS. The NAS has a file, when I try to use that file in a program, it says "The media is write protected." I am an admin Win user, and when right click > properties > security, it says I have write permission. When I copy file from NAS to PC local disk, it still says "The media is write protected."

It could be hardware issue, contact the device vendor ..

Right click > Properties > uncheck read-only > Ok = error "The media is write protected."

I'll pass. What does everyone else have?

I hesitated to reply, because of your unpolished preceding answer. I further do not exactly know, how a NAS works compared to a normal external dive. But if it also has a hidden "System Volume Information" folder, like other external drives, I'd try to clear that one first.
At your own risk ! (I don't know what else is on your NAS).

No prob. All it does is inserts an entry into the reg. When, in future, you right click an obstinate file, there is an option to unlock it.
