How to Format SanDisk Micro SD Card on PC?
Geeks - Formatting a SanDisk micro SD card on a PC is a simple process that can be accomplished in just a few steps. Here is how to do it:
Insert the micro SD card into a card reader and connect it to your PC.
Open "My Computer" or "This PC" on your PC and locate the micro SD card. It should be listed as a removable drive.
Right-click on the micro SD card and select "Format."
A new window will open with options for formatting the card. In the "Volume Label" field, you can give the card a name.
In the "File System" dropdown menu, select the file system you want to use for the card. The options are usually NTFS, exFAT, or FAT32. If you are not sure which one to choose, it is generally safe to select FAT32 for compatibility with most devices.
Check the box for "Quick Format" if you want to format the card quickly, but keep in mind that this option may not completely erase the data on the card. If you want to ensure that all data is erased, uncheck the "Quick Format" box.
Click "Start" to begin the formatting process. A warning message will appear, reminding you that all data on the card will be erased. Click "OK" to continue.
The formatting process will begin and may take a few minutes to complete, depending on the size of the card.
Once the formatting is complete, a message will appear indicating that the process was successful. Click "OK" to close the window and finish the process.
It is important to note that formatting a micro SD card will erase all data on the card, so make sure to back up any important files before formatting. Additionally, formatting a card may fix some issues with the card, such as errors or corruption, but it will not repair physical damage to the card.
