    cant format a usb to wbfs

    i already got it fixed, the whole reason it was messing up in the first place was because i had the drive open in file explorer. i feel so dumb right now i was formatting it because its a flash drive, also didnt mention that in my streak of stupidity

    cant format a usb to wbfs

    im unfamiliar with wiibackupmanager, will i be able to make a wbfs folder in the drive and load games from that?

    cant format a usb to wbfs

    wait, wiibackupmanager gave me access is denied after attempting to lock the drive, im running the program as an admin, i doubt theres something preventing me from doing this is the usb sticks firmware but that was my first thought.

    i expanded the partition and theres now only one partition on the drive, but im still getting the same error, even with wii backup manager

    cant format a usb to wbfs

    ill try this before the other person suggestion, kinda mad at myself for not thinking of finding a way to just repartition the whole drive

    cant format a usb to wbfs

    im trying to format a new usb drive to wbfs from fat32, and wbfs manager 4.0 gives me "an error occurred while attempting to format drive". i loaded it up in disk management and theres an unallocated 10mb partition that i think is causing the error here, is there a way i can make that partition...

    yeah, ended up throwing it away and using a new one, it felt like i was close to the solution with the drivers though

    Homebrew Misc Attempting to recover a bricked usb

    its not showing up in disk manager, which is making me think when i tried reformatting it on windows it broke the drive somehow, wbfs2fat32 is not recognizing it or giving me an option to select other devices either i tried updating the drivers with device manager, as it appears as a broken usb...
