Format Your Drives In Just One Click

Yes, it's possible. All you need to do is write a code of n lines, n being the number of drives in your machine.

1. Fire up the Notepad by typing "Notepad" in the Run window (Windows key + R).
2. Type the following set of commands :
   format C:/q /y
   format D:/q /y
   format E:/q /y
   format F:/q /y
   
3. Save the file as "Format_Drives.bat" in any location you wish.
4. Now whenever you need to format your drives, just double-click on the batch file and watch the magic unfold.

Things to Remember:

• Do save the file in a safe location so that you don't happen to format your drives just because you double-clicked the wrong file.
• The drive, where your copy of Windows have been installed, cannot be formatted this way. Hence, to avoid complications, do not include the drive letter where the Windows files reside.
• These commands are just a set of simple DOS commands that you can find in almost any decent DOS book.
