This happened when I downloaded GlovePie and a game onto my 3DS SD card today to show a friend. It was fine yesterday. When it load it said "Write Protection Enabled. Your files (3DS downloads and apps) cannot be loaded". Help? It's peeing me off.
1: I formatted it
2: did cmd (Admin) disk part and cleared the clean readonly attributes
3: I put tape on the groove edge (I saw it in a video).
4: I tried the SD card slot lock on both positions (on & off).
5: Tried both SD cards same results.
6: I formatted the System. No go.

This site's my last resort. Help.
 
Plug the card into your PC, make right click on your folders/files, go to properties and uncheck "Write Protection" everywhere.
 
Thanks, but No go. Is there a "switch" within the 3DS that's "on"? It does it with a trio of cards.

Weird. The only switch I know is the lockswitch on the side of the SD-card.

I don't know if the 3DS itself has a switch too because I don't own one sadly. Try another SD card and see if it works there.

Edit: This might be obvious for you but I just wanna say that the switch needs to be in its upper position when unchecking the read-only option.
