Go to command prompt, (Win + R, type cmd, enter)
I'm assuming your pendrive letter to be F:
In the command prompt window, type this command:
attrib -h -r -s /s /d F:\*.*
This will make all the hidden/system files visible. Now, copy all the files you need (make sure you do not copy the shortcuts).
Delete the autorun.inf file, and try formatting.
----------
if you're unable to delete the aurorun.inf file, use this tool :
Security software (Free download)
You can use command promt to format the pendrive as well, which is a safer way.
Type format F: /X (if the pendrive letter is F), follow the instructions, and it would format the pendrive.
