| [Mp3] How to delete read-only files in flash drive?
I recently bought a mp3 player cum flash drive but what annoys me is the programme that auto runs (some music player programme which they try to install for me) everytime I plug the drive in. I've tried deleting the files but they are read-only files and access is denied.
Is there anyway I can get rid of those files? The auto-run installation is quite annoying. |

Did you try making the files not read-only? Right-click, properties, uncheck "read only" ?

| Can you tell us the brand/type of mp3 player, that might help if someone else has owned the same one and knows how to fix it.
I guess the extreme way to fix it would be to turn off the auto-run functionality in Windows.

said by Kearnstd  :is it possible to just format it? Can't format, it says the volume is write protected. |
