TRINKET MO WRITE-PROTECTED

Post by Roger435 »

I can't update the program because I can't save it. How to remove the write-protect? I am using the 48MHz 3.3v.

Please help.

Thanks,
Roger Greene

Does anyone know how is the write-protect attribute turned on?

Also, what is Mu?

I have no idea which file to use to fix the write-protect on my TRINKET MO. This is so confusing.

Right now I have purchased three of the TRINKET MOs and they are all write-protected. Why?

I need help.

Thanks.

If you press reset or unplug the board before a file has finished copying, you can corrupt the filesystem, which sometimes make it write-protected.

Are you seeing CIRCUITPY as write-protected?

Here are more details about connecting to CircuitPython to erase and reformat CIRCUITPY:
