Guys, any hot tips to repair a corrupted USB stick before I hand it over to my father to run his forensic-level Lord High Computationer (shhh the syllables fit) sorcery? (I'm pretty sure I don't have anything SUPER private on it - but it's the principle of the thing!) (Also I like to fix things myself.)
I have a low-CPU machine running Linux Mint (noob user, though), a Chromebook that's just starting to go out-of-date, and standard Windows.
I'll give anything free a try! lol (Uhhh short of just formatting it and starting over. Nothing necessarily irretrievable(?) but would be a LOT of work…)
