How to fix USB memory stick?

skljom

I have USB memory stick of 2 GB, when I insert it into PC it says that it needs formating before using the memory stick. I press format and select options for formating and press Format. After that a message apears "Windows is unable to format..." I tried different settings and it won't work, I tried formating via CMD with "format D:" commands and I've tried "Diskpart" command. None of them work.. Do you have any idea what to do next?

Google for the Hp usb disk format tool and format it with this then it should work again.

This always works for me and I saved a few sticks with this
