HI I have a SanDisk Ultra microSDXC/SDHC and it will not allow me to delete anything off the card every time i delete it either using my phone or directly on my PC it shows as empty yet when i reconnect the card to either my phone or back to the PC it shows as full again.
When i try to format the card on the PC it fails and will not allow me to for mat it
What can i do?
The card is about 7 years old and is in a Samsung S7 phone and my PC is running windows 10 and all are up to date.
Thanks
Spending my time reading how to fix PC's,instead of looking at Facebook.

I've made the claim so will just wait and see
The only issue is me not having a receipt for it but it was 7 years ago

Run command line, CMD.exe
At a command prompt, type diskpart
At the DISKPART prompt, type LIST DISK (note number of the SD Card)
At the DISKPART prompt, type select disk 1 (number of the SD Card)
At the DISKPART prompt, type clean all
At the DISKPART prompt, type exit
Remove SD Card and pop back in, hopefully it will prompt to format.
The write protect switch is off but i also tried to delete while in my phone and connected to the PC and that didn't work either.
Thanks
I had to send back via UPS to Poland, Check out the shipping costs ekkk Sandisk paid everything
