Ok so here's what happened.I had been using a USB stick to re-install Windows 10 and quickly reformat my dads laptop. Now I used the existing Windows 10 to create the live USB drive and I guess it write protected the stick.Now I've been trying a bunch of things to get my stick back:BooticeGparted (Format to, Delete)Windows Disk UtilityLinux (Cinnamon?) Disk UtilityDispart (clean, recover)Windows quick formatSo I pretty much am just getting errorsUnable to format because of I/O ErrorUnable to open drive read-write. Drive opened read-onlyUnable to format because it's opened read-onlyIf you have any suggestions on what to do. I have a Linux and a Windows 10 installation so I can try both :)
