Hey all, i have a mosebear 4gb pen drive which now cannot be formatted nor edited. adding new contents is also not possible.
As i insert my pen drive in usb port a message appears " you need to Format the drive before use... and as i try to format it pushes an error msg you donot have sufficient rights to perform this operation"..
I tried cmd command to format it but there it states "please insert a disk in drive i".
Can anyone please help me..

1. Try it on another PC, just to see if the pen drive is OK and the USB-port on your PC is defective. The most likely outcome is that then pen drive has gone south.
2. Throw it away and use another one.

Why would you need a non-working pen-drive? I can't think of any use for it.
Of course, you might need another pen drive. I need them also. Luckily, they are cheap.

I need them. What on Earth for?

I have a few tech friends that we use them to slice or crack open to show or demo how to reflow solder joints that sometimes brings back a dead stick.
For some odd reason a few techs can't watch the YouTube and learn about this but need the hands on training.

If it fails on other units, it's likely gone.

Try the HP USB FORMAT TOOL (see google) for a last hurrah.
