How to format a flash drive using cmd

The procedure is as follows:
  • Connect the USB flash drive to your PC.
  • Click on Start > Run > Type cmd and click on OK.
    • Assuming the letter assigned to the USB flash drive is G, type the following command:
  • format /q /x G: and press Enter.
  • The q parameter stands for quick format
  • The x parameter forces the selected volume to dismount, if needed.
  • NB: Don't forget to replace the letter "G" with your drive letter.
