Write-Protecting a Diskette
When a diskette is write-protected, the information stored on it
can be read, but cannot be permanently changed.
Each 3.5-inch diskette has a sliding write-protect tab.
To write-protect a diskette, slide the tab on the corner of the
diskette until the window is open.
Before you use diskettes that come with a new software program,
it is good practice to make backup copies and to write-protect the
original diskettes.
