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!

 

Unable to recover corrupt SD card/RAW file

Good Day Aileen,

Thank you very much for your expert advice.

I did as instructed and all was going very well.....

until the very end of the format process!!!

This is what the result was.....

invalid media or track 0 bad - disk unusable.

Does this mean exactly that, that the SD card is no longer usable?

What are your thoughts please.
