What do you mean a better explorer ? There`s no such thing.

Run a system file check.

If the sfc shows nothing use this tutorial

:ar: Repair Install

Look at the tip in step 5

If you do not have a Windows 7 with SP1 installation DVD/USB, then you can download the latest official Windows 7 with SP1 ISO file here: Microsoft: Windows 7 Direct Download Links, and use Windows 7 USB-DVD Download Tool to create a bootable DVD or USB flash drive with the ISO to do the repair install from within Windows 7 using this step.

the flashdrive is a sandisk cruzer glide 32gb the ont thing that moves on it is the slide that reveales the usb and thats all

 

[Dude]

Try disc management and format the usb drive

 

[emmett82]

Try disc management and format the usb drive

i did i even tried forcefully taking ownership and force formating and nothing worked im thinking id need something cmd related to fix it

 

[Dude]

Try these steps

1. Shutdown your computer or laptop
2. Insert USB Memory Stick into your laptop or Computer
3. Turn on computer and then immediately start pressing (F8) key then Advanced Boot Options screen will come up
4. Select Safe Mode with Command Prompt
5. After loading files if your USB Memory Stick drive letter is (G) for example then write as
6. C:\windows\system32>G: and press enter
7. G:\>format G: and press enter
8. If ask you (Y/N) then press (Y) and press enter
9. Now a full format will start which remove write protection from USB Memory Stick.
