Cruzer Edge 32GB unusable

I am using Windows 10.

When I inserted this new drive, I received a message that I needed to format it,

I selected “format disk”.

A window opened showing the capcacity as 124KB and FAT32 was showing as default file system.

I selected “quick format” but received the message that the drive was write protected.

When I chose NTFS instead, that quickly produced the message that Windows could not complete the format.

Could someone please advise?
