Write-Protecting Diskettes; Do's And Don'ts - EUROCOM DeskNote 2100P User Manual

Write-Protecting Diskettes

Diskettes can be write-protected to prevent files from being accidentally
erased or destroyed by system. To write-protect a 3.5" floppy diskette, move
the built-in write-protect tab to the write-protect position, ("up" so that you can
see through the "hole" in the upper, right-hand corner of the diskette). Putting
the write protect tab back "down' will enable you to write data on the disk
again.

media.
