My "Current Read-Only State" is ON, but the "Read-only" is OFF. Help?

I've tried everything in my power to get rid of the write-protection off of my USB that I just got. I've tried:

Typing "diskpart attributes disk clear readonly" in Diskpart. That didn't work.

Setting WriteProtect 1 to 0 in regedit. That didn't work.

And no, mine don't have a write protection switch on my thumb drive.
