This article mainly introduces how to fix Diskpart can not clear the disk attribute error on Windows 10, has a certain reference value, interested friends can refer to, I hope you have a lot of gains after reading this article, let Xiaobian take you to understand.

Diskpart Tool is a command line tool that can be used to manage partitions in Windows systems. It provides all the features of disk management tools and more. However, in some cases, the Diskpart utility fails to change the properties of a partition and provides the following message- Diskpart failed to clear disk properties.

Possible causes of this problem are as follows:

Bad sectors in the hard drive are associated with partitions.

--Partitions may be hidden.

--For external drives, physical write protection switches may be enabled.

--External drive may be RAW format.

--You can also enable write protection for certain internal drives from the registry.

Diskpart failed to clear disk properties

You can try the following solutions to solve this problem:

--Run CHKDSK utility

--Check physical write protection switch on external drive

--Change format of external drive from RAW to other format

--Remove write protection from the registry.

1. run the CHKDSK utility

CHKDSK utility helps to check bad sectors in hard drive and repair them. This should be the *** step before summing up the hardware.

2. Check for physical write protection switches on external drives

Some external drives have a physical write-protect switch. When the switch is on, you will not be able to modify the contents of the drive.

Personal advice is to exclude external drives when using Diskpart utility, but if it must be used, turn off the toggle switch on external drives.

3. Change the format of external drive from RAW to another format

RAW format is created when certain files in external drive are corrupted. It can also be caused by hardware problems, but in this case we can't solve the problem ourselves. In this case, we have to format the file system as FAT or NTFS.

Press Win + R to open the Run window and type the command diskpart.

In the subsequent elevated command prompt window, type the following commands and press Enter after each command to execute it.

list volume select volume x format fs=fat32 quick exit.

where x is the drive letter of the external drive to format.

When finished, you can continue with whatever you initially did using the Diskpart command.

4. Delete write protection via registry

Registry Editor methods can be used to resolve this issue. The procedure for doing so is as follows:

Press Win + R to open the Run window. Type the command regedit and press Enter to open the Registry Editor window.

Navigate to the following path in Registry Editor:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\StorageDevicePolicies

In the right pane, double-click WriteProtect to edit its properties.

Change the value of Value Data to 0.

Click OK to save the settings and restart the system.
