That's why I thought of another operating system, but you never know. Okay. I just see that you never know if not the real PC accesses the stick. Be sure the virus does not work on Mac OS or Linux either.

Question: Format USB stick does not work!

I can throw it away with the data

Thank you

Hello!
1. If you were to format it, the data was then "gone". (So throw away another PC / notebook to format.

Can I still somehow repair the stick or is the USB flash drive maybe some sliding control, to save or retrieve on him.

If I like to open then always the data carrier needs to be formatted well then you want to be able to switch the write protection on and off?

3. I can not do anything the same - only after formatting you still have the stick. )
