I figured out that the wdc pc sn720 sdapntw-256g-1006 ssd here has a readonly attribute for some reason. I tried to remove that attribute throught cmd, winPE,  but nothing worked for me. Please help

You have to delete all partitions first!

Then click on the yellow star (new) and give the size in MB.

Example 120 GB = 1024 x 120 = 122880

 

If that doesn't work run the command prompt in PE (Shift + F10) and type

diskpart

clean

convert gpt (for UEFI)

convert mbr (for Legacy)

exit

exit

go back to the installation

Thanks for your reply but i'm not able to delete any partition.
That's what happens when i try.
Translation : We are not able to delete this partition (Error:0x800700001)

Same with diskapart in PE.

HP Recommended

Try this:

from your installation picture click return

then Shift + F10

in command prompt type

diskpart

sel disk 0

sel par 1

del par override

if it works delete all partition 1-3

usually the command

clean

works

 

Edit:

Create a new installation USB-stick with the last "Media Creation Tool" from MS

HP Recommended

Didn't work.

I tried media creation tool also but no work

HP Recommended

What do you see if you type:

diskpart 

list disk

sel disk 0

list par

exit

What is the filesystem? Fat 16, Fat32?

can you reformat the disk?

I can do nothing with the disk since its read only.

HP Recommended

There is a (*) in the column behind the GPT column and I couldn't find out what that means.

Can you try this

diskpart
list disk
sel disk 0
attrib disk
attributes disk clear readonly
exit

HP Recommended

Already done that before.

Dont remember exactly what the error message was but something like "access denied".

But im sure the line "read only" was "yes"

HP Recommended

send it back to HP is the only solution I have.
