Sure. Remove the data from the disk and put it onto a hard
drive temporarily. Reformat the floppy. Restore the data back to
the floppy. That would be the only way.

did, in the past, have trouble with reading some disc's,.
I'm not sure why you want to reformat the floppy, but I
and on my old PC ran scandisc and enabled me to then read
it. Though I'm no PC buff.

The reason I was asking about Reformatting is, I was keeping data from my work schedule on a floppy disc, then all of a sudden 1 day I could not get any information off of it. I was hoping that if you reformat the disc, it would possibly allow it. When I try to open the disc, it gives me the pop-up "The disc you are trying to open is unformatted or has been formatted by a Macintosh", or something like that. I was told by a fellow computer user, that you should always check to make sure the changes have been added to the disc, I was doing that when I started and had no problem, so I stopped doing it
So now, I guess I have to pay the price
