How to mount removable AND writeable disk?

Dear Forum,
I'm using a program called Rekordbox that can write only to removable disks. As I don't have a USB key at hand, I thought I'd emulate one, by mounting an image using AIM Toolkit, ticking the "removable" checkbox, so that Rekordbox can then write to that image.
I can successfully mount the image and the contained FAT32 volume shows up as removable in Rekordbox just like I need. However, the entire disk is read-only, i.e. I can not alter or write to the volume. In diskpart, the disk shows up as Current Read-only State: Yes; Read-only: No. Running attributes disk clear readonly in diskpart doesn't change this.
Of course, I have the "Read-only" checkbox unticked. What do I need to do to mount the image as removable, but in writable mode? Please see the attached screenshot for the settings that I unsuccessfully tried.
Cheers and happy holidays,
J
For one of the two command line tools (aim_cli.exe), a flag was not explicitly specified for disks that are not read-only. It still worked well... except for removable disks.
Thanks for pointing that.
I have uploaded a quick fix. Please try.
Hi v77,
the fix works! Thank you so much!
Best regards, J
