Default cant format

In your first message you said you typed formatc:

You should type format c: /s to a command prompt to format your active =
partition, or type format drive: if you want to format a partition that =
is not your active partition. If you typed what you entered in your =
first message you would get an error because there is no space after =
fomat.

See:
How to Use the Fdisk Tool and the Format Tool to Partition or =
Repartition a Hard Disk
