Rules for formatting a pen drive

 Almost all of us use pen drives for easy data transfer. However, there is a risk of a virus attack on the pen drive if it is connected to an unfamiliar computer or laptop or through various files. To solve the problem, format the pen drive and get rid of the suspicious virus.

Pendrive format

To format a pen drive on a computer running Windows operating system, you must first insert the pen drive into the computer's USB port. Click on the This PC icon on the desktop or press the Windows and E keys simultaneously to launch Windows Explorer. You can see the name of your pen drive under the Devices and drives section.

Place the cursor on the pen drive icon and select the Format option by right-clicking the mouse. Once the Format window opens, the other settings here cannot be changed without the need. Now you have to write the name of the pen drive in the box below the Volume label. If there is no tick mark next to the Quick Format option of Format options under the pen drive, then clicking the Start button with the tick mark will start the format.
