Hello ssyknuwyg,
Welcome to the forums :)

I deactivated your posted link as it either does not exist or the connection to the server is problematic. For the time being please describe what you are seeing in words and we can go from there.

Thanks
Mike

Hi ssyknuwyg,
Sorry for the late reply on this as I had to check with our Chinese team regarding the translation of the message popup. For the benefit of those who do not read Chinese, the message is basically saying that:

{QUOTE-> the floppy disk is read-only and it can not be written to for some reason, so please remove the Z: drive. <-QUOTE}

This is not a message from Returnil; rather it is a message from a program or antivirus complaining that the Virtual Partition (Z:\ drive) cannot be written to. In this case I would suggest this is due to the Virtual Partition being mounted as read-only. Though I cannot say from the picture what this program is, I can provide a warning that messages like this can, and do, come from malicious programs that attempt to write to a restricted drive or partition.

If you know what the program is and why it is attempting to write to the Virtual Partition you should specify a different partition or drive for it to save its data or deactivate the VP "mount as read-only" option. If you do not know what program caused this message, I would strongly suggest performing a full, in-depth system scan of your computer with your chosen AV/AS/AM solution just in case.

HTH
Mike
