Hi kingkumarae,
Due to viruses , the drive cannot be formatted in many cases, however if you want to format it ,
I would recommend that you restart your computer and plug in the pen drive and then do not autorun it.
When you do that , you can right click on the drive that you find in my computer and then rightly click on select format option, and then you can format your drive.
If this does not work in your computer you can possibly try it in your laptop using the same procedure.
Hope this helps ...:)
