Windows Won’t Let Me Format a Drive

Asked By Kevin A Augustin 40 points N/A Posted on - 05/31/2015

The memory of my computer is full and I can no longer store any file in it. When looking at the hard disk’s memory, it does not show the properties of the drive. I want to format it, but I have never formatted any before, so I don’t know how to carry out the whole procedure. How can I format the computer and are there any problems that might arise as a result of formatting it?
