Protecting a Recorded Cassette

Video cassettes have a safety tab to prevent accidental erasure.
When this tab has been removed, you cannot record on the tape.

If you wish to protect a cassette, break off the tab using a small
screwdriver.

To re-record over a protected cassette (safety tab broken), cover
the opening with adhesive tape.
