Therefore, the flash drive may not load in televisions, set-top boxes, etc. All these devices, like the MgaRemix bootloader, require the use of native/factory flash drive parameters: dos partition, FAT32 file system.\n\nTo bring the flash drive to normal, factory parameters, a USBRestore was created. He does a forced \"resuscitation\" and removes all unnecessary things from the flash drive by pressing one button, returning it to the \"from the store\" state:\n\n1. Clears the partition table\n2. Marks the dos partition\n3. Creates a FAT32 partition\n4. Formats the partition labeled USBDRIVE\n5. Checks the section for errors with correction\n\nBe careful when choosing a device from the list! The program itself determines removable devices, but their variety is great, so pay attention to the capacity (G), i.e. Gigabytes, when working.\n\n![](https://github.com/AKotov-dev/usbrestore/blob/main/ScreenShot-v0.1.png)\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fakotov-dev%2Fusbrestore","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fakotov-dev%2Fusbrestore","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fakotov-dev%2Fusbrestore/lists"}
