Thank you so much! I, like many others, couldn't get my SSD set up properly and you provided a clear, concise answer in a very friendly manner. I can finally use it as it was intended to be used.
Lil help? "Clean is not allowed on the disk containing the current boot, system, pagefile, crashdump or hibernation volume." Would be very much appreciated thanks :)
This error message will appear because of hidden files or quarantined/ isolated files somewhere on your HDD that need admin approval to delete.. either that or its a system file you may need to make a 2nd copy of to be able to continue using windows... happy hunting
Thank you so very much! After reading tons of articles and a lot of videos, I was led to this outstanding and very thorough video. My SSD showed up in disk management but would not allow me to format it so you helped me to wipe it clean and start over. Thanks again! I have spent several days and many hours trying to resolve this issue. Seven minutes with your video and "BAM!" I can sleep now. Lol.
When I asked the "Universe" (Internet) how to initialise an SSD stick up popped this video. The beginning steps using Disk Part and Clean was my saviour. You saved me yet-another-trip to the computer store because the SSD stick was not appearing. Thanks mate.
4 years in the making ssd has been sitting in my computer unknownst to me with my harddrive booting up every game slowly day by day for 4 years straight thanks to you i have found freedom props go to you man
You're a life saver! Recently my drive got virus attack and the drive totally corrupted. Then i use Disk Drill software to recover what i can. Few files were corrupted but majority were okay. Then when i want to format the disk, it was unable to complete the format. Finally i jumped to this video and i can use my drive back! Thankyou sir!
This helped so much, I was searching for so long. This was the only actual tutorial that worked. You are an incredible human being, thank you for all that you do.
For those are using Windows 11, it's the same steps. I can confirm it because I've been trying to format my damn hard disk for months and this guy helped me
OMG!!! I have been having problems forever and finally found your video. Thank Goodness as IT WORKED!!!! I can't believe the hours of RUclips videos I have watched and you fixed it in 5 minutes. THANK YOU!!!!!
I see a few comments saying it doesn't work. That's usually because diskpart detects what it thinks are files from an OS. You won't be able to clean from within windows with diskpart. If you have this error instead create a bootable USB windows installer. Boot from this USB stick and instead of starting a windows install go into repair my computer and then command prompt and perform the operations there (diskpart > select the right disk > clean > create partition primary > format > assign).
Run your CMD with Administrator privileges then type run the following commands: :diskpart :list disk :select disk X (Replace X with the hard drive you want to clean) :clean
Ohhh man....you saved...me......my ssd got finally formatted....thanks man ......every other man in youtube just said the same thing....but you told us a new thing.....thanks man....appreciate it........love ya
Thank you for this. I'd formatted my new ssd externally and couldn't figure out why it wasn't showing when I hooked it up internally and was formatted as MBR. This fixed it for me
Excellent video, with a nice human touch. 👍👍 to the host. Very nice guy. I particularly liked his reaction to his new Vulcan SSD getting better speeds than the basic specs for the SSD. I can relate fully. Most importantly, I followed each step in the video as the host performed them, and it was like he was right here with me. Very nice man, helping people that are obviously in need of help, and sometimes, very upset. I will store the URL for this video away with my Tech help tools and info, for future reference, and to share with others if necessary. 😉
Many thanks for creating this tech vid, after wasting hours on multiple different OS's your veered resolve my problem within a few minutes. Owe you a beer 🙂
Thanks a ton!! My external HDD crashed and No backup recovery cleaner tool worked. Windows CMD the best of all. Just what I was searching for. All data lost but at least HDD works now.
I was hoping this video would help me but alas. I took an old ssd out of a machine and I cannot clean it. I have gone through this process a few times. I initialise the disk, assign a drive letter, and it still has all the old file system folders in tact. Cannot format it at all. Any advice?
Thanks a lot for the video! I kept getting an error every time I tried to clean the disk but putting in "list volume" told me what to do. Didn't see that anywhere else, so it was very helpful!
hi, i find your video to be very informative. And recently my SSD got corrupted and following the steps shown in the video towards the point of "clean" command i got an incorrect function error on disk part both volumes and disk cant be cleaned with CMD usage are there alternative step to take upon this?
Grateful to this video of yours. Really it's a Life-saver with such eay and simple to follow method and intuitive style of yours. Thank you very much. Great Job.
OH MY GOD THANK YOU SO MUCH I JUST SPENT HOURS I MEAN HOURS UPON HOURS TRYING TO GET MY SSD TO CONNECT AND HERE YOU GO AND FIX IT IN LESS THEN 5 MINUTES 🎉🎉🎉😂
I searched many websites for information. But it couldn't help me. Until I watch this, this easy-to-understand and concise video. Thank you very much! 👏
It doesn't really work if your drive can't be mounted and it's locked in "read only" mode. There are additional steps in disabling write-protection before you can erase the drive.
this is exactly what I needed after hours of research! So quick and easy. Thank you!
lets see if it works for me
@@manojmachagiri999 Did it work?

Whenever I hit Clean it says it’s not a valid command 😭😭
Run your CMD with Administrator privileges then type run the following commands:
:diskpart
:list disk
:select disk X (Replace X with the hard drive you want to clean)
:clean

ty so much for this, just took the drive on my dead macbook and did this to make it a clean new one.
Thanks man for months i could not find any solutions to format my internal SSD drive i feel a tool now, and after all that it was so easy.
Just want to thank you for this video! I finally found a solution for my 2 SSD.
This was very helpful. I had a ssd that would not format, and you showed the right tool for the job.
Thank you so much, i have been struggling off and on with this for about a year and i have finally figured it out.
Clean is not allowed on the risk containing the current boot. System page file. Crashdump or hypernation mode
