Probably depends on what *IS* the USB flash device, like its brand and
model (hint, hint). :o

Open your eyes and look for the switch to unlock, this wil remove the write
protection.

Thats a bit harsh mate. They were asking for help, not for you to be a
tosser about it.

He has to remove the label. Then with a very fine screw driver, he can pry
apart the two case halves. He will find the switch inside, on the circuit
board.

What other answer was appropriate? He bought the damn thing. He should read
the small manual that came with it.
