    Always having problem with re-paritioning/formatting flashdisks


    When i use flashdisk, i have always some complicated bizzare issues with re-formatting/partitioning. Flashdisk had 2 partitions. I reformatted the main, but i noticed there was left 10MB efi partition. So i wanted to delete it, so it doesn't cause issues. Currently, there is only unallocated space. And now when i try to create partition using disk management it says - (see picture).

    I know last time, i had to download professional programs for partitioning and do some complicated things to make flashdisk work again, so exhausting. While i use it for some bootable system, or something. Than it always gets bugged, can't even reformat, or delete partition. Or some other issues. No idea why, what is a problem each time... It should be simple...

    Also had to use diskpart, because disk management, couldn't delete this one partition. And after clicked ok on this error in computer management, it say there is new partition, but it says RAW as format. Never seen that before...

    I am trying create new partition using diskpart, but it looks like stuck geez. Why??? I am not doing rocket science, i simply want to reformat and if it doesn't work delete partition and recreate, but it is each time annoying... No idea why, because it should be simple as that...

    So i have RAW (healthy, primary) partition. When i try to assign letter using diskpart. I get: "DiskPart has encountered an error: The system cannot find the file specified.
    See the System Event Log for more information.". Never had this problem before.

    I have each time some weird problem with flashdisk...

    :)

    View Poll Results: My Flashdisk Doesn't Appear Automatically

    I have used my 8Gb Flashdisk as bootable disk. But any problem when I try bootable, so I force to pull out it.

    When I booting to Windows and open File Manager, my flashdisk can't show up. I have checked disk manager and I see my flashdisk (I want to format it but It can't), so I use EaseUs to format it. And It worked (Drive letter: E & name: New Volume), I see my flashdisk in my File Manager.

    I try to eject, but the Removable Disk (EAlways having problem with re-paritioning/formatting flashdisks :) is still here. When I plug it on, It doesn't appear :'). If I format it with EaseUs, it make a new drive letter (FAlways having problem with re-paritioning/formatting flashdisks :). It is temporary until I 'eject' or Restart my laptop.

    How to solve it? I have tried many ways but It can't be solved.

    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!
