Some pen drives come with a physical switch on the drive that means the data cannot be modified. Ensure this set to unlocked.

If that doesn't work then look though all the files on your pen drive and see if any have been marked as read only. To do this in Windows right click the file and choose "Properties". Look to see if the read only attribute has been set for the file.
