Step 1: run CMD as admin Step 2: enter diskpart, type: diskpart Step 3: (assumes you got into diskpart) type: list disk Step 4: select the "bricked" drive, type: select disk + the disk number (1,2,3,w.e) i.e "select disk 2" Step 5: (assumes you now have your "bricked" drive selected) type: clean Step 6: type: create partition primary step 7: type: format fs=ntfs (or w.e format you want the drive) . this will take a bit, have a coffee. Step 8: type: assign (this assigns a drive letter and mount point) step 9: exit diskpart, type: exit the drive should now be 100% usable again!

When i type clean it says: Unable to format disk: 'The system cannot find the file specified' then it does not show the flash drive in List Disk. I have to remove it and insert it again to view it in List Disk.Step 2: enter diskpart, type: diskpart Step 3: (assumes you got into diskpart) type: list disk Step 4: select the "bricked" drive, type: select disk + the disk number (1,2,3,w.e) i.e "select disk 2" Step 5: (assumes you now have your "bricked" drive selected) type: clean Step 6: type: create partition primary step 7: type: format fs=ntfs (or w.e format you want the drive) . this will take a bit, have a coffee. Step 8: type: assign (this assigns a drive letter and mount point) step 9: exit diskpart, type: exit the drive should now be 100% usable again! luckily im bored right now and had time to type that :P Title: Re: How to repair bricked/corrupted flash drive ?

I use Low-Level Format Tool called HDD LLF (from HDDGURU) that always working good (at least for me) ;)
This tool has saved a few of my FDD and HDD :D http://hddguru.com/software/HDD-LLF-Low-Level-Format-Tool/ Title: Re: How to repair bricked/corrupted flash drive ? Post by: sikke1 on March 22, 2019, 02:56:50 AM This will fix it under windows. It will remove all unwanted partition layouts.
