Is there anyway to save a corrupted USB drive?
I don’t need the files in that USB drive since it’s just a linux bootable drive. I corrupted it by prematurely removing the drive since I thought the OS was done installing. I tried sticking it in my other laptops hoping to format it but it won’t get recognized. I was hoping there’s some way to save it.
