Write-protecting Diskettes

You can write-protect a diskette to prevent its data from being altered.

When a diskette is write-protected, you can read it and copy data

from it, but you cannot store new data on the diskette or delete any

files it contains. If you try to change data stored on a write-protected

diskette, MS-DOS displays an error message.

To write-protect a 5¼-inch diskette, cover the small, rectangular

notch (shown below) with an adhesive write-protect tab. Write-

protect tabs usually come with new 5¼-inch diskettes when you buy

them.
