Thank God, it really worked!
My 8 GB pen drive was showing 0 bytes total size. I was shocked...
But when I formatted with HP USB disk storage format tool the problem is solved...

There are two parts to a USB drive. The controller chip and the memory chip. It looks like the controller chip works but the memory chip has failed. You will need to buy a new USB drive.

Hello,
# Download USB Fix on your computer, and launch it.
# It will start automatically, and a shortcut will be created on your desktop.
# Connect all your external data sources to your PC (Usb keys, external drives, etc...) Do not open them.
# Choose " Deletion " option.

#The computer will re-start, and it may be longer than usually.

# UsbFix will display a message at re-start.

# Click "OK" to start cleaning.
# Copy/paste the report here.
