Hello,

I use 2 SD cards on my Sony A7 III.
Both works properly while in the camera : I can take pictures, videos, and delete files easily.

But when I put the SD cards in my PC, it says it's write protected.
I can't empty my card :(

I can read all the content, but can't remove files (from my pc, cause again, I can from the camera).

I tried several solutions : using Diskpart, Edit the Registry, run a CHKDSK (can't cause it says it's write protected).

Any recommendation ?
Thank you

Hey, I found what happened : my Sony camera protects all the content I shot. I have to manually unprotect it from within the camera, so I can delete or cut/paste from my computer.

I don't know why it started protecting my files, but luckily I found out how to stop it :)
