    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!

    Format HDD without floppy disk?

    Formatting a HDD does not require any files or anything on the HDD to format, thats why the formatation file is on the CD and not on the HDD because you cant run a file on the HDD if you are trying to format it. if you are formatting the HDD, its going to completely delete EVERYTHING on the HDD giving you a fresh new start.
     
  4. format network HDD [NAS] to clear completely for reuse... write fresh

    Windows 10 Home Retail USB 3.0 is write-protected, format failed

    Both your suggestions tried but fail.

    Very likely I have to abandon this Microsoft Pendrive since I cannot reuse it and format it with the newest OS fresh installation.
