It's a hardware failure and you can't reverse it through software. It's just that you're not able to format it but the data is intact. If I were you, I would buy a new one. There is no harm in trying different options because it may or may not work. I'm talking from my personal experience as I did many things when I was in such situation but wasted my time.

I think you are right, it's from the hardware side. I have tried too many things but it didn't work. but it's maybe for a trojan virus that comes in from a software crack. – Shibaram Mazumder Jan 22 '21 at 12:24

@ShibaramMazumder, You can analyze the problem according to this link, and if you are lucky, make it work again. But I agree with Jijo that it is most likely a hardware failure. – sudodus Jan 22 '21 at 14:08

1Buy a new one? If you still have the receipts, etc you can return it. The warranty is usually 5 years or so on flash drivesn, What make is it? – C.S.Cameron Jan 22 '21 at 14:28
fsck /dev/drivename
. This will fix filesystem errors. Then remount it. – Soren A Jan 22 '21 at 12:09
