PNY Ufix-I Format Tool. First step of our USB flash drive repair tutorial is fixing the flash disk without formatting because may be it have important files so you. Solved 32 gb PNY flash drive USB 2.0 Flash Drive 8GB PNY Problem I have a scosche music flash drive 4gb I added music but dont work in my usb port in my car please help? Ufix User’s Manual 2. Ufix I Function Description 。 Plug in UFD and execute Confirm Disk. Firmware information Exit rescue Ufix II will format and re-partition your UFD to one partition disk。 Page 3 of 5. Ufix II Operation Step After press “Recover” following window will pop up.

I know this is an older post, but I figured I'd post the solution that worked for my 16gb PNY drive. This solution comes as a sort of 'reset' tool directly from PNY..

I was having a similar issue with my 16gb PNY Attache USB 2.0 drive where I could see it in Disk Management, but it showed up as 0mb size, and when I tried to open it, but I'd get a message saying there was no media inserted. After ~3 days (an eternity in my book) of constant troubleshooting, recovery tools, testing (all this even on a Mac), etc. I FINALLY found a solution.

Before I give you the link I'll warn you (and anyone else who might use it) that the tools on this page will erase your drive. I think in the OP's case that's OK, but I wanted to give that little disclaimer just in case.

Without further ado, here is the page of tools directly from PNY that will help you basically reset your flash drive back to factory settings/configuration! Once you're on this page, click the downloads tab and download the appropriate tool. In my case, I tried the first one (Ufix I) which didn't work, so I used the second one in the list (Ufix II) which beautifully restored my flash drive to it's original working form.

Good luck,

Dell OS Recovery USB drives

We have hundreds of the 8GB flash sticks that come with the new Dells for OS recovery. Since we do all our own imaging we have no need for the USB sticks being used for that purpose. We’d like to store data on them as we see fit, but unfortunately the drives are read-only and do not allow us that ability. They cannot be formatted. I’ve searched all over the web and I know it’s possible on previous models but I have not been able to successfully reflash our specific USB sticks. We have the VJ3VF_A00 model usb stick. (black with a light blue label)

I’ve tried many different programs suggested on Techunboxed. This includes the MPALL software, PNY UFix software, and the SMI MPTools. (various versions on all these) In each case the USB stick is not even recognized. It seems the manufacturer of the stick is Mentor Media. We even took one apart.

Has has anyone successfully been able to reconfigure the Dell USB sticks with P/N: VJ3VF_A00 so they can be used for storage purposes rather than OS recovery? We just throw them away now and it would be nice if we could actually use them.
