    about USB format


    I want to recognize fat32 format USB on embedded device.

    In Windows XP and 7, formatting USB and copying files should be fine on embedded devices.

    But in Windows 8 and 10, if you do the same, the embedded device will not recognize USB.

    All conditions are the same, the other depends on which Windows xp 7 <=> 8 10 the USB fat32 format is used.


    How is the fat32 format command in Windows 8 and 10 different from previous windows?

    :)

    How To Format A Write Protected Flash Memory ?

    ¿You already tried this one?...

    Run CMD


    1. diskpart
    2. list disk

    Then in the 3º step, put the correct number of disk in the list for the usb flash (if it's listed in disk 3, then you'll have to write select disk 3).

    2. select disk #
    3. clean
    4. create partition primary
    5. select partition 1
    6. active
    7. format fs=fat32
    8. assign
    9. exit

    with that commands you will format the flash drive in fat32, if you have a large drive you can select also "format fs=ntfs" in step 7.

    good luck!

    Formatting USB stick/usb hdd issues

    Drive has probably failed. Try this.

    Run admin command prompt and type

    diskpart

    list disk

    select disk n (n is number of usb drive)

    clean (wipes drive - do not select wrong drive!)

    create partition primary

    select partition 1

    format fs=ntfs quick

    assign

    exit

    exit

    If any step fails, drive has almost certainly failed.
