Today I came across a very useful and 100 percent working command that can resolve many flash drive problems that we face in our daily lives due to corrupted drives. And our PC tells us to format them again and again and we still are not able to use them so here is a written as well as video tutorial for the same.
Firstly, find out the drive letter that your USB stick is. Let's say for demo's sake that it is the F drive.
Go to the start menu, and search for "run". Open that and type CMD. Depending on your Windows version, you can simply type CMD into the search bar and open the Command Prompt.
When this is open, type the following, without the brackets: [Chkdsk F: /r] Also remember that I am using the letter F as a reference, yours may be another but you can find it in My Computer.
Back to the point, when you have pressed enter, it will start repairing damaged files and you will see some of your filenames (relief!) before it finally asks if you want to save lost chains into another location. These are essentially remnants of damaged files, I tend to click "Yes" just in case.
Your USB drive should now be working, please let me know how you get on!
