Files not getting deleted on Pen drive!!!
Hello folks,
I have a weird problem in my pen drive, there is a 900 MB folder in it which contains MP3 files, when I try to delete this folder or when I try to format the disk it says “disk is write-protected” and gives 3 options Try again, Skip and cancel. And when I go inside the folder and right-click on the MP3 files there is no delete option at-all. Tried to format or delete in windows Xp, Windows 7 and also ubuntu but no success. Even tried unlocker software but still it doesn't help 
Is there any other option which I can try???

Re: Files not getting deleted on Pen drive!!!
Delete the partition by computer management and then reformat.

Re: Files not getting deleted on Pen drive!!!
Try to format the drive in Safe mode.
In case you dont know how, keep pressing F8 when computer start, and wait for a menu. Then select the option, "Safe mode". After arriving to the desktop, try to format without opening the drive (preferably through command prompt).
If unsuccessful post the exact error message and/or screenshot.
