My USB flash drive became completely bricked
I turned my 16 GB USB stick into LiveUSB for Kali with dd
. After I was done, I wanted to format it into NTFS for watching movies, however something went bad and it is broken now. It just says ISOIMAGE as name. It can't be mounted and when I try to format it again I get the warning:
What am I supposed to do. Can it be rescued?
Edit: I have created the Liveboot and tried to format the USB both within Ubuntu. The problem is related to ubuntu and I don't agree that it is off-topic.
I have been able to solve the problem.
I have tried to format it on Windows too but the problem persisted. Same thing with gparted
and Disks too.
So I did the following:
sudo -i
fdisk /dev/sdx (in my case was sda)
n
-set attributes as default-
w
After that, went to gparted and reformatted as ntfs. And bingo!
