so the .dex is a file inside the apk
because if you try to open an apk file in like 7zip, its basically just a zip file, can explore the contents inside

so it seems like whatever weird antivirus you have unpacked it and detected something suspicious in said file (well, you know what you downloaded)

it says D is a usb drive, what usb drive is this?

Have tried other card readers?
Or it could just be a unlucky coincidence that your SD Card decided to die at this time

Also try
https://www.sdcard.org/downloads/formatter/

The official SD Card formatter tool

where did you get it from/what brand?

Usually SD Cards have a decently long warranty period, try to claim it

Yeah I would say just warranty it (if it also doesnt format on other devices (eg, android phone), I had a basic 16gb sandisk go read only on me when it died, so could be similar problem.

Checking the listing in TS's screenshot, it does seem to be a MicroSD Card with an adapter

Do make sure the adapter's write protect notch isn't set to lock
And do double check, my old laptop liked to push it over to lock while inserting the card in

eh, I dont like sites like these, they are SEO junk generated sites made from templates like "10 ways to fix PROBLEM"
diskpart already tried by TS
messing with regedit or group policy is risky

which brings you to step 4 where they try to sell you their software, which is their goal

Easier to just go claim warranty, seems like this product has lifetime warranty, so go make use of it.

But it does not allow retrieving the files inside, yes? Like will only give replacement card?

Usually no, you will have to manually copy anything you need off the card and store it somewhere else temporarily before sending it in

Weird dmg card but still can read the files inside
Except can't format only

It's the most ideal failure mode, since you can still read and get anything you need off it

If it had died completely and could not be read, then rip all your data on it
