Format a Virus Infected Pen drive Using Command Prompt

However most of the time, a pen drive format using cmd will delete the virus file permanently by means. So here's the steps to format a pendrive using command prompt window.


First, insert your thum drive into the usb port
Open my computer and find out the drive specification letter for your usb drive. For example, in my case it's H:

Open command prompt ( start>>Run = "cmd" without quotes )


Type format<space>"your drive letter" and press Enter twice 


 In my case, 
C:\Documents and Settings\1webtutor>format h:

Now the command prompt setup will verify the file system and ask you to enter a name for your drive - Volume label

After giving a volume label, press Enter

You're now done.
