Recovery of flash drive partitions
Recovery of flash drive partitions may be necessary if they were damaged or deleted by mistake. Here are some steps you can take to restore partitions on a flash drive:
1. Check the connection: Make sure that your flash drive is correctly connected to the computer and is visible in the explorer.
2. Use Disk Manager (Windows): Press Win + X and select “Device Manager”. Then find your USB drive in the list of storage devices. If you see it there without any problem indicators (such as a yellow triangle), then perhaps it has only one formatted partition.
3. Use third-party software: There are many free programs for restoring lost or deleted partitions on a flash drive - for example, MiniTool Partition Wizard Free Edition or EaseUS Partition Master Free Edition.
a) First, download the necessary program from the Internet
b) Open it after the download is complete
c) Select the option to scan all available local files exclusively for the flash drive
d) After the scan is complete, the program will show all available partitions on your flash drive. You can choose the right one and restore the ego.
4. Use the command line (Windows): If you are familiar with using the command line, you can use the Windows tools DiskPart or TestDisk.
a) Type "cmd" in the "Start" menu to open the command prompt.
b) Type `diskpart' and press Enter.
c) Type `list disk' to see a list of all connected disk devices. Refer to the number of your USB drive (usually it will have a smaller size compared to all other drives).
d) Enter the following commands:
– select disk X (where X is the number of your USB drive)
- clean
Then create a new partition using third-party software or use the functionality of the Manager
