I have tried either via the onboard SD card reader or USB card reader to format/delete data from a 8GB micro sd.
Have tried all the standard procedures using a SD formatter program and all the various Dos commands via Attributes and Diskpart etc without success.
My version Win7 Home 64bit.
I have followed this thread " http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windows/en-US/7710dab8-863a-44d0-93ad-dfe93aa3af2a/unable-to-writedelete-data-on-external-usb-disk-in-windows-7"
I have installed a download for gpedit which my Win7 home had not installed as standard. Followed instructions as "http://www.askvg.com/how-to-enable-group-policy-editor-gpedit-msc-in-windows-7-home-premium-home-basic-and-starter-editions/"
Having checked for "Computer Configuration -> Administrative Templates -> System -> Removable Storage Access", this not being listed.
My 'Microsoft Manage Console' gives no listing of 'Removable Storage' in Remove/Add Snap view.
So in 'Group Policy Edit' to change the 'Removal Disk' settings to Disabled is not seen.
"Removable Disks: Deny execute access
Removable Disks: Deny read access
Removable Disks: Deny write access
Double-click each one and select the 'Disabled'
radio button."
What have I done wrong.
thanks
