Hey I have a question!! Can we use any company's adapter for SanDisk SD card or we have to buy a SanDisk adapter for SanDisk SD Card? Pls reply I need your help🙏🏻

[@hunelysium]

Thank you for making this video. In my case, 'format' options was not available from both Windows Explorer, or Disk Management in Windows; and it didn't allow me to both from Ubuntu Folder, and also even with Gparted in Ubuntu as well. on Windows, I get "This disk is write protected" It feels like I may have encountered one of the really stubborn cases. Have you seen this scenario before?

[@rudygon426]

there should be a physical switch that turns off write protection on the sd card itself

Hi Michael. I have a 64 SD card which works on an android phone, but It is not working on windows10. Actually windows can not recognize the card on the windows explorer and diskpart on the CMD. However ıt is listed on device and printers menu. What should I do to use it again

When I format a MicroSD Card for an Auto Vox X2 mirror, on my iMac, which format should I select? Mac OS Extended (Journaled or Case-sensitive), MS-DOS (Fat), or ExFat?

[@jesuscastillotr]

Thanks for the information. Recently I put my SD card on another camera and when I put it back to my stop record automatically for buffer overflow. It's the first time that my sd do that in 2 years, how can I fix this issue. Thanks!!

Erase process has failed . click done to continue Hi Ive tried to do this to a brans new disc that came with the dash cam but then she tell me it's not recognized and please format ???? could you please help me thank you

[@RecoveritDataRecoverySoftware]

Hi there, thank you for your question! If you tried all the steps mentioned in the video Try opening up the terminal and running the following commands: "diskutil list" find the disk and type the following command replacing the # with the drive. "sudo diskutil unmountDisk force /dev/disk#" then run the following command to erase the drive: "diskutil erasedisk {format type} {desired name} {disk #}" for format type typically you use xfat then the name you want and the disk letter for the last.

How to format a protected sd card

[@lordesca4364]

People like me who came here to format a SD Card which shows "Windows is unable to format". Then this video is nowhere close where you want to be for your SD Card. P.S- Try to format it in Linux OS or if you have a Windows machine, try "Virtual Machine" to install Linux OS temporarily and format the SD Card.
