  1. Formatting Windos 10, help please!


    Hi everyone,

    I am running Windows 10 home on my HP Pavilion Notebook and due to some problems I wanted to format my Laptop.

    My question is if formatting through "settings - update & security - recovery - restart this PC - delete all" everything everything gets deleted? Someone told me that's not a full restart.

    I want to get rid of everything.

    The problem is that my CAPS LOCK turns on and off randomly every few seconds and my mouse pad gets stuck... I tried a lot of things and nothing worked out so formatted the laptop as mentioned above and everything was working fine for a few days but than the same error.

    (if I connect a external key board the problem still exists, USB mouse works fine)

    Thanks in advance for your helpful answers!!

    :)

    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 an external Drive.

    Hello Roger,

    Thank you for posting your concern in Microsoft Community and welcome to the Windows 10 Family.

    I would suggest you to follow the below steps to format the drive you are referring to.

    • Right Click on Start menu and select Open Computer Management.

    • In the left pane, under Storage, click Disk Management.

    • Right-click the volume that you want to format, and then click Format.

    • To format the volume with the default settings, in the Format dialog box, click
      OK, and then click OK again.
    Note: You cannot format a disk or partition that is currently in use, including the partition that contains Windows.

    Hope it helps.

    Thank you.
