To do this:

Open the Registry Editor click on the Start button on your taskbar, then click on Run and type “regedit” and click on OK to start the regedit utility.

Expand HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control.

From there right click and create a new key and name it “StorageDevicePolicies”. In the window on the right then create a new DWORD value and label it WriteProtect, give it a value of “1″ and users can no longer write to USB drives. To re-enable this option change the value to 0 and users are again allowed to write.

The modifications you made will be in effect after you reboot your PC.

Or simplay use this
Code:

or this one
Code:
*ftp.intelliadmin.com/disableusb_free.exe

And check which one works for u

I dont think OP is an admin, and he wants to enable the USB port disabled by an admin. Sorry dude, not possible.
