5. Finally,run/launch the saved file and your hard-disk will be formatted automatically.

TIPS.

• If you can't rename/change the file extension,it means the Display of file extension has been disabled.
  To change it,go to My computer » Tools »Folder Options » View,then uncheck “Hide Extension For Known File Types”
• Never try this unless you're sure you want to format your PC.
• Always try to Backup your drive before formatting it.
