Pico in readonly mode

[sahilohe]

my pico after flashing circuitpy python is in readonly mode and I am not able to write any code in it.

This is really more of a support question, more suited for the forums (https://forums.adafruit.com) or discord (https://adafru.it/discord)

This may be due to a corrupted filesystem. Do this in the REPL:

>>> import storage
>>> storage.erase_filesystem()

That will erase and reformat CIRCUITPY.

If that does not work:

1. Which version of CircuitPython?
2. Is this is a regular Pi Pico?
3. Are you using Thonny, or are you using the CIRCUITPY drive with an regular text editor on the host computer?
