Hey guys, this is my first forum post so I hope I do this correctly. I am in dire need of some of the best and brightest minds available to help me out of this dilemma. My brand new, expensive 64gb micro sd card has become pretty heavily corrupted and very difficult to access. Recovery of the files is not important to me; repairing the drive is. I have used almost every trick for windows I have regurgitated from the internet: SD Formatter, Unlocker, advanced deletion tools, the chkdsk command, scanning with Kaspersky (and malwarebytes), but nothing is working. Most of the programs that I tried simply shuts the drive down; the chkdsk command says the drive is dirty (or in one case, that it was in a RAW format). I can see the files on the disk, but whenever I attempt to open or modify them, the drive force closes, and makes me plug it back in again. SD Formatter as well as unlocker say that the file is Write-Protected, which is impossible from a hardware perspective because it is lacking a physical switch. From what little I could look at from looking at the drives properties told me a couple files on the drive are indeed write protected, which prevents me from formatting the disk. But as I said, whenever I attempt to modify the attributes of the files, the drive force closes. I have tried all of these methods on all of my windows computers, as well as my linux computer running Ubuntu, will all but similar results. I am no yellowbelly when it comes to computing, but this problem has me in a rut. If anyone can help me, it would be greatly appreciated.

Yeah, unfortunately, I have, but to no avail. I thought my old external card reader could be a factor, but I tried it in my internal PC reader and on the reader of my Surface Pro 3, so I am sure that isn't the problem. Thank you for the speedy reply though.
