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?
