Sometimes, things might go wrong, and you end up with a half-flashed drive that is unusable by your operating systems, and common graphical tools might even refuse to get it back to a normal state.

To solve these kinds of problems, we've collected a list of fail-proof methods to completely erase your drive in major operating systems.

Windows
In Windows, we'll use diskpart, a command line utility tool that comes pre-installed in all modern Windows versions.

Open cmd.exe from either the list of all installed applications, or from the "Run..." dialog usually accessible by pressing Ctrl+X.

Type diskpart.exe and press "Enter". You'll be asked to provide administrator permissions, and a new prompt window will appear. The following commands should be run in the new window.

Run list disk to list the available drives. Take note of the number id that identifies the drive you want to clean.

Run select disk N, where N corresponds to the id from the previous step.

Run clean. This command will completely clean your drive by erasing any existent filesystem.

Run create partition primary. This command will create a new partition.

Run active. This command will active the partition.

Run list partition. This command will show available partition.

Run select partition N, where N corresponds to the id of the newly available partition.

Run format override quick. This command will format the partition. You can choose a specific formatting by adding FS=xx where xx could be NTFS or FAT or FAT32 after format. Example : format FS=NTFS override quick

Run exit to quit diskpart.
