![]() ![]() Stopping the format process will leave your partition in RAW state, which means it's inaccessible until you format it. Unfortunately, this solution works only with HDD (external or internal), not with flash drives (not supported operation). You can take your disk offline! Doing so, it will stop the format process and by bringing the disk back online, you can continue working with it. There is yet an other option, which worked for me, and no one mentioned (at least on the sites I checked). Googling around, people suggest to kill the process using task manager (which you can't) or reboot your system. In that case, instinctively you would press Ctrl+C only to find that you've just killed DiskPart instead of stopping the format process. ![]() Using DiskPart to clean up hard disk partitions and MBR is fast and easy but you can accidentally invoke a full format which can take a while to finish.
