Ever wondered of a way to format your hard disk using just notepad ?
I bet you haven’t even thought about it or if you have had then you would still have preferred using reliable software’s available to do the job.
In this post i am going to share a simple way to format your C drive (Yep, only C drive) using just notepad. This is just a nice little nifty trick, which i am sharing with you. Make sure you don’t actually use it on your business computer. Try to make this trick work in a VMWare Machine in your free time.
Moving on, in order to completely format your C: Drive (Primary disk) follow the steps given below :-
- Open notepad.
- Type the following the code in it (Or just copy paste it).
- Save it as an .exe file giving any name you desire.
01100110011011110111001001101101011000010111010000 100000011000110011101001011100
0010000000101111010100010010111101011000
Thats It ! Now just double click on the file (to open it) and your C: drive will be formatted !
This is just a little binary fun. Be Careful while using it.
UPDATE : No, you can’t run it from C: drive itself (not from the drive in which OS is installed & running).

One Question
does this work from C: drive? I mean if I am running on OS on C: and I save this on the same drive and execute it. What will happen?
Will the computer like self destruct? huh?

@Vaibhav Kanwal 2 things :
1. I tried it in a virtual environment and running it crashed the entire thing (Not the original OS).
2. No, you can’t run it from C: drive itself (not from the drive in which OS is installed & running). I have mentioned the same in post.

You can dual boot 2 OS’s but not from same drive, instead 2 seperate drive’s are required. All you need to do is First install Windows 7 and then install Windows XP (on some other drive). Once you do so, you’ll get the option to choose the Operating System.
