Ptedit Windows 10

Posted on

After a few experiments, my USB drive suddenly stopped working. Windows says that I have to format it, but I haven’t found any tools able to do it. Some tools says bad disc, the built-in tool in Ubuntu says:

5 Ways to Access Local Group Policy Editor on Windows 10. You can access the Local Group Policy Editor (see the following picture) on your Windows 10 computer with the help of Run, Search, Start Menu, Command Prompt and Windows PowerShell. For more info, please keep on reading. The second is to use the Boot Sector Template Window from PTEdit as described in the next section. As with PartitionInfo, you can either use one of the utilities in the Quick Start or you can download and unzip the stand-alones PTEDIT32.zip (for Windows) or ptedit.zip (for DOS) from the Symantec public FTP folder.

“Error creating partition table: helper exited with exit code 1: Error calling fsync(2) on /dev/sdb: Input/output error”
and others can’t even find the drive.

Is there any way to fix it, or is it better to just buy a new one?

  1. Thanks for the help.
    HP USB tool fixed mine fine.
    My problem was that my USB stick showed up as needing to be formatted, but Windows wouldn't do it.
    Thank you HP..and thanks to everyone who shared their comments on this site.
    Nite nite

  2. Hey, if you still have this issue. I had issue where my flash drive was empty and when i right click on properties, it showed that my usb drive was full.( im using windows). So i ended up reformatting the drive.
    basically, you are reformatting the drive so backup all the files. **
    right click on the E: icon on my computer, then there go to 'format' .
    here was my settings
    File systems FAT32 Allocation unit size 'Default allocation size' and
    Volume label PENDRIVE.
    on Format options check 'quick format. '
    Had this issue, thought it was something do with my usb port but was not. and i got my 4GB flash drive working again.
    Good luck

    • Nevermind, seems like this option has been suggested below.

  3. None of the software above works, so I'll just buy a new drive instead.
    Thanks for helping me anyway.

    • Download Neo Tools and see if will help the format
      http://www.box.net/shared/9hgp81ndgs

      Try MPTOOLS to repair USB key
      http://www.myblog.bloggybloggy.com/usb-key-fix-mptools-11-05-2008/

      • Neo tools failed too (USB Device not found).
        Badblocks didn't seem to help much.
        Windows error-checking told me to format the floppy (!) before checking.
        MPTOOLS couldn't find the drive either.

        • told you mate ,
          the drive is damaged beyond recognition by any software ,
          let alone trying to repair it .!

          dont waste your time ,
          go for a replacement if under warranty
          or
          get a branded new one of high quality .

          i would highly recommend Patriot Drives .
          lil expensive but top of line with best performance benchmarks .! :)

        • another brand i highly recommend is Mushkin Pen Drives .
          one of the best .!

          PTEDIT

          some says run PTEDIT in Compatibility Mode when using Windows 7 but setting the compatibility option to 'Windows XP SP3.

          to format with windows
          1. Go to start button on windows.

          2. Type 'cmd' and right click on 'cmd' and click 'Run as Administrator'

          3. C:Windowssystem32>

          4. Now type : chkdsk : /f

          For e.g If my hard disk is named 'f' then just type ---------- chkdsk f: /f

        • It's dead, I give up.
          CHKDSK says:
          'File system is RAW. CHKDSK is not available for RAW disks.'
          PTEDIT and the other one you mentioned can't find the drive.

        • If you don't require the data, here is what you need to do:

          - Go to My
          Computer, Control Panel, Administrative Tools, Computer Management.
          -
          Go to Storage > Disk Managment group on the left, and then right
          click on your USB drive on the right.
          - From here, you should be able to
          remove the RAW patition and then create a new one as FAT.

          if you have another usb key with the same size then use HDHacker
          http://dimio.altervista.org/eng/
          1) with HDHacker save BootSector_DriveF.dat from the functional usb key
          2)insert your malfunctioned usb key and load BootSector_DriveF.dat to it.

          if non works then buy a new usb key

        • I get a CRC error on the Disk Management, and I don't have another stick with the same size.

    • I suggest to get some branded drive like Corsair, ADATA, OCZ or SanDisk. They are a bit more expensive but they usually come with warranties of 5-10 years.

      When my Voyager GT was damaged (only 6MB usable) I told Corsair support that HP USB Format Tool didn't work and they gave me an RMA number right away. I only had to pay shipping to them, exchange and return was free of charge.

  4. i would also like to recommend GParted ( http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php ) .

    its one of the most powerful partition editors and disk analyzers which uses the Linux environment .

    many times for me most of the other more common and popular tools have failed in the job which GParted completed easily .

    its easy to operate , just follow the instructions in the link i posted , and you shall be good to go ..

    • The disk don't even show up in GParted :(

      • hello Simen ,
        well, this is for the first time i am getting to know that GPart dint 'find' the drive. usually the notion goes , that if GPart couldnt do anything about your drive , then chances are that nothing else would work .!

        most likely , the drive is physically damaged beyond recognition by any app .

        so you are out of luck and would have to go for a replacement or a new one ...

  5. Hello, without having the disk on hand, it is hard to say. You can try the tool provided above. If it is the hardware failing, I would say it would be too costly for you and therefore not worth it, unless you have information you can not afford to loose stored on it.

    Now, there are a couple of programs that can help. The only way of finding out if they work for you is by trying them. Keep in mind, that these two programs are heavy on your drive and they take a long time to run, regardless of how fast your disk is. They would also tell you if they can run or not because like I said before, they are heavy on your disk and if your disk is on the way out, they would finish killing it. Both of them are paid softwares but they are worth the price. The first one is called:

    hdd regenerator: http://www.dposoft.net/

    If you download the trial version, it will show what it can recover but it will not let you repair the disk.

    The second software is:

    spinrite:

    Both of these software have worked miracles for me in the past. They do what they claim to do. Keep in mind that if your disk is completely dead, there is no software that can help you.

  6. Since you encounter an I/O error I would first try another USB Port on your system.

    On Windows you can always try the HP USB Format Tool which often works wonders.

    Other then that I would say the USB connector or internal storage on the drive is damaged. I suggest to check the manufacturers site for a possible warranty exchange.

    • HP USB Format Tool says: 'Device media is write-protected.'

      • Since you already tried Linux you can rule out the Windows write protection.

        I assume if your USB device does have some sort of hardware write protection e.g. a lock switch, keylock or fingerprint you already tried that too?

        The only other tool I can think of is HDD LLF.

        If this doesn't work I would say your only chance is the official manufacturers support or maybe a warranty exchange.

        • The HDD Low Format Tool also fail. (format error)

    • Forgot to mention it in my other post, but I have tried all the USB ports on two computers. Same result on all ports. :(

Method 1: Copying the Gpedit.dll File to the Windows System Folderlink

  1. The file you downloaded is a compressed file with the '.zip' extension. In order to install it, first, double-click the '.zip' file and open the file. You will see the file named 'Gpedit.dll' in the window that opens up. This is the file you need to install. Drag this file to the desktop with your mouse's left button.
  2. Copy the 'Gpedit.dll' file file you extracted.
  3. Paste the dll file you copied into the 'C:WindowsSystem32' folder.
  4. If you are using a 64 Bit operating system, copy the 'Gpedit.dll' file and paste it into the 'C:WindowssysWOW64' as well.
    NOTE! On Windows operating systems with 64 Bit architecture, the dll file must be in both the 'sysWOW64' folder as well as the 'System32' folder. In other words, you must copy the 'Gpedit.dll' file into both folders.
  5. In order to complete this step, you must run the Command Prompt as administrator. In order to do this, all you have to do is follow the steps below.
    NOTE! We ran the Command Prompt using Windows 10. If you are using Windows 8.1, Windows 8, Windows 7, Windows Vista or Windows XP, you can use the same method to run the Command Prompt as administrator.
    1. Open the Start Menu and before clicking anywhere, type 'cmd' on your keyboard. This process will enable you to run a search through the Start Menu. We also typed in 'cmd' to bring up the Command Prompt.
    2. Right-click the 'Command Prompt' search result that comes up and click the Run as administrator' option.
  6. Let's copy the command below and paste it in the Command Line that comes up, then let's press Enter. This command deletes the Gpedit.dll file's problematic registry in the Windows Registry Editor(The file that we copied to the System32 folder does not perform any action with the file, it just deletes the registry in the Windows Registry Editor. The file that we pasted into the System32 folder will not be damaged).
    %windir%System32regsvr32.exe /u Gpedit.dll
  7. If you are using a 64 Bit operating system, after doing the commands above, you also need to run the command below. With this command, we will also delete the Gpedit.dll file's damaged registry for 64 Bit (The deleting process will be only for the registries in Regedit. In other words, the dll file you pasted into the SysWoW64 folder will not be damaged at all).
    %windir%SysWoW64regsvr32.exe /u Gpedit.dll
  8. We need to make a clean registry for the dll file's registry that we deleted from Regedit (Windows Registry Editor). In order to accomplish this, copy and paste the command below into the Command Line and press Enter key.
    %windir%System32regsvr32.exe /i Gpedit.dll
  9. If you are using a 64 Bit operating system, after running the command above, you also need to run the command below. With this command, we will have added a new file in place of the damaged Gpedit.dll file that we deleted.
    %windir%SysWoW64regsvr32.exe /i Gpedit.dll
  10. If you did all the processes correctly, the missing dll file will have been installed. You may have made some mistakes when running the Command Line processes. Generally, these errors will not prevent the Gpedit.dll file from being installed. In other words, the installation will be completed, but it may give an error due to some incompatibility issues. You can try running the program that was giving you this dll file error after restarting your computer. If you are still getting the dll file error when running the program, please try the 2nd method.
