USB refuses to be repaired.

Hello,
my dear friends

I have a faulty USB key, but when I try to repair it using the AOMEI PARTITION software, this message appears on my screen,
(Sorry, the ongoing operation has been canceled!
Error code: 6
Description: The partition table update failed because the table is locked by other programs. Please close other programs before trying again.

What does the code information mean? Please refer to: https://www.diskpart.com/fr/help/errorcode.html )

I don't understand what this message means, please explain it to me and thank you in advance.

Best regards,

        With the command prompt as administrator (CMD.exe), do a search

        Change x to the drive letter

        chkdsk /f x:

        Answer Y

        This should stop the processes that have access to the drive

        1. Thank you dear Fabul for your effort, but unfortunately I can't understand what you explained to me. I need a tutorial or a video.

            1) Click on the "Start" button of your Windows.
            2) Type CMD directly on the keyboard:



            3) In this black window, click and type:
            chkdsk /f x:
            (X being the letter of your USB drive, for example E which gives: chkdsk /f E: )

            4) Respond Y (for Yes)

          You need to close a program that is accessing the key.
