Recovering Flash Drive From Bootable Format

Recovering Flash Drive From Bootable Format

 

How to recover your flash drive after making it bootable with cmd(command prompt).
 We do make our usb pen drives bootable in order to format our desktop or laptop. we can make it bootable using cmd or Power Iso. In fact, there are many ways to do that but the one i use is Power Iso but there is a problem. After making that flash drive
bootable, it will start behaving like a hard drive. meaning, The bios can load the any operating system from your flash and the funny thing is, you'll see your flash drive with funny capacity like 9.0mb, capacity less than the usual or your flash drive with
many partitions. so today i will be helping you out of that frustration. I am saying so because i have once experienced it. No much talking but actions, we will need cmd to do this job. Lets get started.

------------------------------------------------------------

Steps to follow:

 
1) Open cmd as administrator
2)Type diskpart
3)Type list disk
4)Type select disk X(in the place of x put your pen drive number as listed, eg 1,2,...)
5)Type clean(its going to format it)
6)Type create partition primary(its going to create a new primary partition)
7)Type active(this command is going to make that partition active)
8)Type format fs=fat32 quick(this command is going to create a new file system fat32. u can put ntfs in the place of fat32)
9)When done, type exit(it will lead u out of diskpart)
