RAWBInfo "write protected" state
Posted: Mon Jan 26, 2015 8:18 pm
This is a minor problem but I figured it should be reported.
When calling up Information on a write-protected volume, RAWBInfo is showing "state: write protected", which is correct. However, it is showing it as a clickable button the same as a soft write-protected volume. I'm not sure if it is possible to tell the difference between a physically write-protected volume and one which has been soft-locked through the filesystem, but if it is, it shouldn't be showing a button to unprotect it.
Upon clicking the button I get a "volume xxx is write protected" message (I know!) followed by the requester to get the password to soft-unlock it. Neither of these make sense on a physically protected disk.
In case this is filesystem dependant, I ran these tests on a CD. (CDFileSystem 53.4 - from Final Edition)
