Question How to format code written on a attiny85 based microcontroller ?

[aymeric75]

Hello,

I imported some code on a USB drive that uses an attiny85 based microcontroller (which acts like a keyboard when plugged in, equivalent to a rubber ducky). The code consists of opening any program that allow writting on the user computer and write infinitely "Hello World".

I would like to format this USB, but the problem is that the very code I imported on it (infinite loop writting) prevent me to do so, in fact I face problems:

1. The invasing behaviour make it difficult to open any program or to do any action
2. The USB is not recognized by my computer as a drive (on Windows and Linux also), so I don't see how it can be formatted.

Anyone has an idea on how to proceed ?

Sorry, I might not use the exact terminologies, please feel free to correct it in this case.

Actually I went back to the same tutorial I used to code the microcontroller (https://aminbohio.com/creating-a-cheap-rubber-ducky-aka-bad-usb-with-attiny85/) and I just used it to change the code. It's silly I know ^^.
