FLOPPY DISK QUICK FORMAT

Just discover a floppy disk full of files you'll never use again? Don't throw it away. Assuming you know the disk is still in good condition (if you aren't sure, stay tuned for our next tip), recycle it.

With the disk in your floppy drive, double-click My Computer, then right-click your floppy drive icon and select Format. Select Quick (Erase) and, if you want, type a label for the disk (up to 11 characters). Click OK, wait for a message telling you the operation is complete, click OK, then click Close. Good as new!
