MicroSD card is set to Read-only state. How can I write data on it?

I dont have 50 credits to add an comment. I had the same problem, and I yes, I tried several adapters and seveveral readers. One SD card seems screwed others behave fine. Screwed means: gparted, dd, and hdparm denied access with root permssions. (It was a sandisk ultra 16GB)

Then I put the microSD in an old USB-reader (from Transcent P3-121211) instead of an adapter. The card at once mounted automatically in the filemanager. gparted was able to modify a partition. And best, the card was writable in the adapter again. Dont ask me which dirty bit the Sandisk dudes have installed and why an usb-reader dont cares.

So if someone can test and confirm this fact, he is allowed to add the comment to the right thread and cancel this question.

    You may not be able to add a comment, but you can definitely write a new answer. And what you've written here would qualify as an answer to that question, which I would upvote. And so might other people, and then you would be able to write comments ;) – Esther Nov 24 '22 at 23:59
