CP314-1H-Query regarding Where is the hardware write protection jumper located in the Chromebook?

Schlendri

Hi, so I've read on MrChromebook's that you can disable it via jumper and there is a blog post asking a rather similar question, but the op just said that he found the jumper and not where it is located.

I know that there is one on my Chromebook, I just don't know where. So if anyone of you has experience with the same Chromebook or has an idea how to locate the jumper pins that would be awesome.

Not sure about the where is the hardware write protection jumper located in the Chromebook. But to disable hardware write protection on your Acer Chromebook 314-3H, you typically need to remove a write-protect screw on the motherboard. Check online guides specific to your model for the exact location and steps, as it varies by device. You can find more details in below post:-

For the CB315-1H there isn't a write protect jumper per se. You disconnect the battery, connect the charger, then use ESC-Reload-Power to turn it on. It will then prompt you for a recovery flash drive.
