Here in the below, you'll find an effective method to remove write-protection and get rid of 'Read Only' error from your storage device ... 

Step A. Run CMD to remove 'Read Only' from hard disk/USB/SD card/external hard driveIt's quite simple to remove and fix storage device 'Read Only' error by applying CMD command. 
The only thing that you need to keep in mind is to be very careful while following the CMD guide steps to remove the ”Read Only” error from an SD card, USB drive, hard disk or external hard drive.

 :) so .. I got this in my mail inbox the other day ..

"Hello Magrathchamber.com Owner,

You can't think, even your website helps you to rise your revenue with so various errors. Many business holders get perplexed as their website isn't accomplishment well, while others are thriving. That's unsuccessful, but not your affluence! 

Now, I will show you SOME TECHNICAL ERRROS in your Magrathchamber.com. 

If this is something you are concerned in,Please let me know.

Regards,
Scot Walker.

This originally caught my interest due to the blatant misspelling and typographical TECHNICAL ERRROS shouted out at me.  Obviously Mr SpamRobot is no english speaker and has some nefarious purpose for this communication. I find no obvious virus or malware links embedded in the email. A quick google search shows that this phone number appears in several random spam emails see https://800notes.com/Phone.aspx/1-240-489-2269 over the past several years. The contact names and website affiliations vary on these many spam communications, with possibly only the phone number remaining the same, much like the Dread Pirate Roberts.  I presume if anyone bothered to call them back they would attempt to sell them the London Bridge or something similar. My concern? What happens when Mr SpamRobot learns to speak engrish and use a smell checker? How will we be able to trust what we read and see anywhere on the internet?  What then? Well, until then, "O be wise, what can I say more?" They say: 'Don't click links or download unknown programs. Don't take wooden nickels from strangers.' (I can't believe you clicked on that last link! aren't you listening here?) But then, again,  who ever listens to 'them'? Also, it would probably be best not to call that number .. again ..

So Dear Reader, 

When  you find yourself lost in a sea of broken website promises. If your computer has  been hacked and your financial information collected by pirates. If you need someone trustworthy to come rescue your sinking ship .. If this is something you are concerned in,Please let me know.

​Hi Roger,

It seems that one of your pages has a broken link and I thought you’d want to know.

I landed on this page - http://www.ssdirect.com/news/install-opendns-familyshield and noticed you have a link to the OpenDNS page on internet security and the parental controls they offer (https://www.opendns.com/home-internet-security/parental-controls/opendns-familyshield/). I searched on their site and it looks like it has just moved to https://www.opendns.com/home-internet-security/ so you may want to update your page.

Whilst you are updating perhaps you’d consider also including a link to one of our pages on internet safety as well? We have a toolbox of 120 tools and tricks for the concerned parent to keep their child safe online. Here is the link - http://backgroundchecks.org/the-concerned-parents-toolbox-120-tools-and-tricks-to-protect-your-kids.html

I hope this helps, please let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks,
Joseph

Abstract: Ooma Office - Tried it for a month - liked some features, but in the end had to send it back because a) fax line issues, b) dialing out issues, and c) in bound calls not ringing the phone .. all somewhat critical for a phone system to handle. Disclaimer: Ooma did not work for us, but may be ok for your situation.  Read more for 'our story' ..

So, recently I decided it would be neat to have the computer read me back a talk I had written and given. I suppose I could just record it by reading it aloud into a microphone, but that would get tedious and who likes to hear their own voice? Why can't a Siri-like voice could read it for me? Hmm

So if you have internet service already .. and need a home phone line .. 
​Save $$ with Ooma: Home phone for only $109 up front and then just $5/mo for taxes/911 fees. http://www3.ooma.com/refer-a-friend/?referral_code=WIP1981 …

So I ordered up the hardware .. it took a week to arrive.

After it arrived, I took 15 minutes to register it online and and enter my payment  info/911 address location information. I select my new number and  then declined the 'premier' service offer - although it is half the cost of the comparable vonage service - as I only wanted a landline replacement.

Installed the ooma app on my cell phone as well. Calls to my new phone now also ring on my cell whenever I am near wifi (most always). And I can call out on my cell via wifi as if from my new ooma number. Nice

Bottom line: My telco cost per month now comes to just under $5 per month (for 911 fees and tax). Even nicer!

and high speed internet options comparison table /rdd

Wherever this standard is implemented, public users with have access to MagrathOpen public wifi with only a single pre-shared key required = 'ShopMagrath'. Chamber could promote the service with signage “Free MagrathOpen WIFI Here – password = ShopMagrath – Support your Magrath Chamber!” or similar.

Problem: Laptop or computer infected with malware/virus/slow/unwanted popups, because say, a friend has kindly uninstalled/reloaded back to original pristine factory state (a new full setup required) or because my system is just sick and has pick up a bug somewhere 'out there'. 

Auxiliary problem: Don't have any spare cash for a tech to come by and do it for me.
