    You can use a easy hardware fix. The switch on the card connect to nothing inside the card, it just trigger a hardware switch in the reader. You can put a sticky tape over the switch position, then it will appear unlocked. – Sam Jun 08 '17 at 16:24

This should be fixable using the command-line diskpart partitioning tool.

  • run an elevated command prompt
  • run diskpart
  • get a list of your volumes: list volume, identify the sd card
  • select volume # with # being the volume number of the sd card
  • try to remove the write protection using attributes disk clear readonly

that above is almost right, I tried instead:

  • list disk
  • select disk #
  • attributes disk clear readonly

and it worked well, my SD-Card is now unproteced

To see what es is set try:

  • list disk
  • attributes disk
