- Hi everyone, in this video I show you how to fix a damaged or corrupt SD card in Windows 10 using the command line prompt. Maybe your getting the response WINDOWS CAN'T FORMAT DISK then this video should help.
THANK YOU !!!
The chkdsk /f command is all I needed after my phone suddenly asked me to reformat my SD card, but put it in my laptop, ran "chkdsk /f" and everything was instantly fixed!
If I do that process my files and data is not erase in my sd card? It will back again to normal.?
Confirmed, this method allowed me to remove Windows 10 IoT from my 32GB SD card and then install Android 7.0 on it. Thanks again.
I came back here to thank you very much for sharing this information. I went to all sorts of sites and tried many things to fix three 32G SD cards and none of them worked. I have been trying to download and flash an operating system for a little computer and ruined three cards in the attempt.
This worked like a harm and they are back to full functioning. I was fortunate in that there was no data on them taht I wanted to recover, I just wanted to repair them. Agan, thanks very much. I'm looking forward to more videos from you in the future.
I was fooling around with all sorts of SD extraction tools for my damaged SD, while your tip for using CHKDSK just made it work agian, thanks!
I know this is an old video… but its my go to when i have sd card issues!! This is the second time its helped me out… massive thank you for posting this 💪
This brought a corrupt microSD card back to life! Thank you!
_proceeds to back everything up on an external hard drive_
brilliant, this worked a treat for me, i've been trying to setup my 32gb microsd for my galaxy core and it kept messing up. this procedure sorted it. thanks.
Bro thank you so freaking much. I've gone close to a month with my sd damaged and refused to reformat. Too many pics and music that I didn't want to lose. Came across your video, everything is back in order. Thank you man!
+Chino Ude Hi, you're welcome glad everything worked out.
What sould i do, when my computer says this: Cannot open volume for direct acces. ?
Thank you it's been a while since I have used the command prompt I recovered over 5000 songs which I thought were gone for good amongst other things.
It worked! I've had this issue come up so many times before and had to resort to formatting each time. This was a much better alternative and easy fix. Thank you for your help!
+Yessica Frias you're welcome
A big High Five to you Dave. Followed your instructions and it worked perfectly. It opened up E drive (the sd card) and allowed me to copy to my PC. Best wishes, Phil :-)
+PhilGz Hi, that's great! It's easy replace an SD card, but not the contents. Glad everything worked out.

you saved my day my friend. thank you very much. the first command was all i needed to help my sd disk.
Thanks alot! I used disk clean to clean my 64GB SD card. Then it became unallocated. I then inserted the unallocated card into my Sony a6500 and formatted it inside of the camera. Now it works again!
IT WORKED!!!!!!!!!! Thank you from Texas!!!
Did a 100% format like the video, but ended it ended with "DiskPart has encountered an error: the parameter is incorrect see the system event log for more information"

HELP ME! i am trying many ways to format my sd card but it doesn't do so,when i used "chkdsk" command its say it is available for RAW drives only and if i format it from cmd after creating a primary partition its say your "parameters" is incorrect. Please guide me
When i created a primary partition, I've got an error message:
"Virtual Disk Service error:
The operation timed out.
DiskPart has referenced an object which is not up-to-date.
Refresh the object by using the RESCAN command.
If the problem persists exit DiskPart, then restart DiskPart or restart the

It also doesn't seem to fix the two problems it encounters.
Corruption was found while examining the volume bitmap.
An error occurred while recovering lost files.
it dosn't work it says to me (cannot open volume for dirct access) please help
Me too. I had very important shit on there that I was actually going to backup later. I was taking a few final pictures when my phone just abruptly decided to corrupt my microSD card. I was literally about to take it out of the phone to back everything up from it onto my laptop when my phone started acting funny, so I restarted it, then it showed I had no SD card. This happened apparently for no good reason and there's nothing I can do about it either. I've tried everything I can think of, but apparently everything is gone and there's nothing I can do about it. Needless to say, I don't think I'm going to bother putting anything on this or any other card ever again, if it can just be corrupted by my phone whenever it feels like it. I'm not going to waste my time caring.
Oh me too :(
creat partition praimary error... pls.. hlp ... me
Me three
FUCK I'M SO FUCKING FUCKED
Thank you for this tip, it jut so happened I had this problem a while ago, I got new 32 gig for my phone but my phone didn't seem to like it, so I put it in my camera instead so as not to put the SD card to total wast but now I know this tip Thanks again!
Thx! Worked for me. My surveillance camera somehow corrupted a 4gb micro SD card. None of the format options worked whether through the camera software or on my notebook computer. One of the error messages I got using the Windows format option was that it could not format a RAW disk. Seems like my camera is the culprit since it's done that to 2 micro SD cards now, the 4gb and a recently purchased 32gb. I was able to read & format the 32 normally on the notebook using standard format option. Not so with the 4gb, but your command prompt method did the trick.
sd card has "permanent" files, whenever i delete the files and reinsert the sd card the deleted files appear once again
Sana Tzuyu Momo did you find any solution
I have the same problem, is there a solution?
Same...i have face the prob.
God bless you my friend!!! God bless you!
Is it possible to save my 64gb sdcard, its RAW and when i try formatting it, it failed, as well on cmd, i also tried the diskpart > list disk stuff and still didnt work...
The first step Fixed my card!! youre the absolute MVP man! thanks alot
Nice video. I only wish it worked for me. My sd card must be corrupted in a bad way. Whenever inserting the card into my machine or any device, it always freezes that device upon trying to access the drive. :(
virus, throw it out
same
That's the same problem i'm having but i do not want to throw away the sd card because i have alot of pictures on it. Did you find a solution to the problem?
crockett rocket I have the same problem with and SD card I’ve only used in my Nintendo Switch, so it can’t be a virus of any kind.
It happened from one day to another and I’m able to access all the data inside the card (videos, images, save data) and even back it up but I can’t format it or delete the files manually because every time I do so they magically appear again 🙃
@@darkzomboy8342 i have the same problem
I will just get a new SD card and my issue is fixed.
its not about buying SD CARD . its about to fix what's broken. we dont give a fuck for your opinion.
New SD card will not come with the files I need that is on the old card.
Thanks. So many videos explaining things like this go at such a fast pace you can't follow it. Really frustrating. Really easy to follow.
at clean part, command says " Diskpart succeeded in cleaning the disk" however when checking back on disk management it didn't clean.. and when trying to create partition, i can't either... and when proceed to format fs=fat32, command says "there is no volume selected" at this point, i don't know what to do anymore... :-\ help me...
Cannot open volume for direct access.
me too same prob
Same problem.Please help me
+Sarim Rahman Hi, is the volume write protected?
Yes, but the switch is on unlocked. Also when I take it out it is still on unlocked.
+Stan Smallenburg watch this video but where I tell you to List Disk replace Disk with Volume. th-cam.com/video/geP_2e0K4O0/w-d-xo.html
Please advise, if I format my memory card it is showing " request could not be performed because of an I/O device error
HELP MEEE !
So what should I do if i have 256 GB SD card and there is no chance to format it?
I've tried all ways. Thru CMD, with some special programs for formating.
I'm starting to think that this card is dead but when I put that card in PC, system sounds pops that
something is connected disk management is not showing anything.. HELP ME
So when I typed in the chkdsk part, hit enter and it said that the file system is RAW and it is not available for RAW Drives
Thanks but encountered error message at the DISKPART> clean
:
" DiskPart has encountered an error: Data error (cyclic redundancy check).
See the System Event Log for more information. "?
Excellent thanks! Fixed Windows insisting that it needed to format my card!
After create partition primary it show to specified size and off set
I just did this, but got this response when trying to "create partition primary":
"Virtual Disk Service error:
The operation timed out.
DiskPart has referenced an object which is not up-to-date.
Refresh the object by using the RESCAN command.
If the program persists exit DiskPart, then restart DiskPart or restart the computer."
I restarted DiskPart, and it gave me the same error message. What do I do??? It's for a 32GB microSD card that I connected straight into my computer.
I have a corrupted 128 gb card, the disk manager shows the disk having two partitions, a healthy active partition, 119 gb in size & a small 16 mb unallocated.
I have followed all the steps in the video with no joy, the active partition remains active & formatted, a quick or slow format both fail & i've not found an option to remove partitions.
I have nothing on the card of worth, i just want to clear it to be able to reuse it.
A GOPRO session camera was the devise in use when this card failed, the go pro files still remain on the card.
Thank you so much!! I was using a 128g mini SD card on a Motorola Xoom tablet and took it out to transfer all the music (over 7,000) songs and it was corrupted. I tried to open the card on a windows system and still could not open it. All my computers indicated it was a corrupt card and wanted me to format. If I did that I likely would have lost all my songs and photos. Using your guidance I was able to get all my music files and photos back !!
+Stargazer Sky Hi, I'm glad everything worked out, that would have been a lot of data to loose. Good luck! By the way don't trust that card.
My 32gb SD card can't format (the disk is write protected but not) and can't delete files and again can't accept files. What do I do?
maybe your sd card is encrypted
i'm trying to format my 64GB SD card by using your technique but it stuck at the part "create partition primary"...it said " Virtual Disk Service error: There is not enough usable space for this operation."...is there anyway to fix this ? please help. Thank you
Nothing bro it's showing "data error (cyclic redundancy check)."how can I movie further plz reply dude plz help 🙏
