Hello Friend…

1)Lets Try To Format Your Pendrive With NTFS Format.

2)Use Quick Format Utility.

Good Luck…

ed_p · January 4, 2013, 4:22pm

Don’t Format the Pendrive, format the Hard Drive. :smileyvery-happy:

I love the people that think formating solves everything. Maybe when DOS was the primary OS.

If flash drives were supposed to be formatted as NTFS, they would come that way from the factory. They are not. They come formatted as FAT32. Changing the formatting will solve nothing.

"Changing the formatting will solve nothing."

Especially when the device is write protected.

There is no way to do that. You have to return it:

“tell me how i formet it”

a. If new it is already formatted.

b. If you just want to remove files & folders from it simply delete them.

c. If new and write protected return it to the seller.

d. If used and write protected return it to the seller.

e. If seller won’t allow you to return it follow the advice in the posting above yours.
