    Problem with write protection in Kingston 8GB SD HC card

    I have purchased new Kingston 8GB SD HC card, but it’s of no use for me.
    Whenever I want to use the Kingston 8GB SD HC card it shows me a same message. "The disk is write-protected. Remove the write-protection or use another disk.". I am really tired of seeing this annoying message on my computer screen. If anybody have a solution for this please reply.

    This is a very common issue with Kingston 8GB SD HC card whenever you try to copy or delete file or folders from Kingston 8GB SD HC card you get an error message. “Remove the write-protection or use another disk”. And top of that it does not allow you to format.
    Change the registry value to “0”.
