Unfortunately there is no official procedure for unlocking a MicroSD memory card without the password. There are some forums which offer advice on how this can be done, but all of these solutions are done at the risk of the owner. These methods are not tested and so it is not advisable to use these methods if you are unsure about any parts of the process.
Many of the solutions require an extra piece of hardware such as a laptop or a particular mobile telephone. Before attempting any of these fixes, it is a good idea to try to find your receipt and if possible return the card to the store you bought it from.
If you have either a Nokia E51 or a Nokia E61 mobile telephone you can place the memory card into the phone and select the format card option. This will erase everything on the memory card, including your password information, meaning that you will lose any data on the card, but will be able to use the card again.
The same method should also work if you have a PC with a card reader, most cards will allow you to format them without the need for entering the password.
File explorer software will allow you to explore the MicroSD card, again, if you have a PC with a memory card reader. On some MicroSD cards, the password will be contained in a text file on the card.
If none of these techniques work, some mobile phone and accessory shops may be able to unlock the card for you. This will usually cost anywhere between £5 and £15 and usually takes no longer than an hour.
