How to fix sd card lock switch (broken lock, card error, no memory card)

[@therandomtank]

At first when I saw this solution I thought "seems a bit flimsy", but when I did it and turned my camera on it worked! Thanks for making this you're a genius.

[@jaeskull1575]

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! My sd card just broke & I almost went into panick mode but instead I came right on here! Your video was the first I watched & the great thing is I still had the slider so I just taped it down!! Thanks so much you saved my life because I couldn’t go buy one right now!!! Thanks from the bottom of my heart!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@Veeluvstocook]

Thanks so much for your comment. I had the slider as well and did what you did from reading your comment. Thanks also to the creator of this video. I was actually about to give up on the card before I saw this video.

[@pamelaashe1800]

OMG i did it!!!! I watched the video and never thought I would really be able to do the same, but I did!!! I used a toothpick. THANK YOU!!!

[@Mad_Dog_of_the_Regime]

I swear, if there wasn't any thick-indian accent guys like you the whole world would've been still in dark ages. Thank you, this really helped me out.

ho gya yar 3 card pry thy mere aese kharaab Jazak Allah bro Big fan From Pakistan

[@johnmartinez7440]

Very smart! I too would've figured that the switch was actually moving something inside the SD card, instead of inside the camera. Saved me trying to open it up and maybe breaking it further. I'm getting my card replaced under warranty but obviously need the data off it first. Thanks!

[@kcanmol96]

SIMPLY BRILLIANT!! YOU SAVED MY LIFE BRO!! PERFECT TECHNIQUE AND 100 % WORKS!!!!!!!

[@rexjamerica]

[@niteshnitti6844]

Bhai thank you yrr really yahi dikkat thee....ab pura work kar raha hai .👌👌 Friends ye tarika real h ..

[@VIDEOEPPO]

Thank you so so much. I used to have a lots of cards but the whole pack was lost during a shoot. The only card I have now is the one that was left on the camera. Today, the card lock broke just before the shoot. After watching your video, i fixed it and completed my shoot. So big big thanks

[@swativats1981]

Just tried this and it works like a charm! This is the only video you need if your memory card lock is broken.

[@ilrosol3606]

This madlad just straight up saved my 3ds sd card with all my saves. Thanks Bro!

[@Peppermint1]

The loud music was really not needed, but you explained to us how that switch works so thumbs up. I think one in 1000000 ever used that useless switch, yet all the cards have one

[@seba01597]

thank you very much man, last week I found an old SD Card and now I can use again, peace ✌️

[@thavirubro]

[@AhsanUllah-cb9sq]

Thank You Great Video my Memory card Was locked now see your video and I Repaird my memory card😘😘😘😘😘😘😘

[@squarepantzisme]

If he stated 'Fix your SD Card with only a match stick' as a title, know one would have believed him. Thank you!

[@cindyfreeman5854]

Thank you so much! I'd watched a few videos where they just covered it with tape, but that wasn't working for me. This did work for both SD cards I needed to fix!

[@wildeastadventurefreak2710]

Thank you so much. I was thinking about buying a new sd card. Then watched the video and It took me only 5 mins to fix the issue..

[@blitzroehre1807]

Who could downvote this video?? Was it those few who were too stupid and cut their fingers instead of the match?? Thanks bro, you helped me out here, much appreciated, cheers!

[@msdosm4nfred]

The guys who downvoted the video are probably racists.

[@ezramortimer7688]

Omg Thank you SO MUCH!!! I can’t believe it worked!!

[@durbarbagerhat]

Brother! Thank you very much. My Nikon D5300 camera memory card problem is fixed after watching your video.❤️🇧🇩

[@Danielevans2]

You're a star! thank you for making this!

[@elizeo9520]

Thank you for talking about this lock switch, I had the same problem as you did and I was able to fix it by being more careful with the card. I slid the Lock on "Unlocked" and carefully put the card back in my Camera. If I didn't watch this video I wouldn't have figured it out.

[@aaronbrooks1687]

Thank you I finally got my 2ds working again with no money

[@MUTSthumbsaver]

I noticed that some card readers push this tab down or even off when inserting card. I'd first superglue the tab in place to prevent this if you have no reason to lock. As for the matchstick (flat toothpick is easier as it has square edges) I would superglue it in place, THEN trim it flush- less handling. Never push a blade towards you finger! I winced seeing that.

[@jignatrivedivjhhiis1.ina107]

Omg I did it n it's worked properly thank you🙏
