                    Hello
The sites you mentioned are not Chinese but Russian. Downloading from any Chinese or Russian site is a security hazard.
You stick is probably damaged it which case it can't be repaired.
You may wish to contact Centon Customer Care:

                    That was a foolish mistake!  I apologize.  That "ru" is definitely Russian.
There are countless sites in various asian languages. I was tired when I
found those sites. That why I thought they were Chinese.
ChipsBank Technologies is located in Shenzhen, China. Their flash
controllers are inside millions of industrial and consumer products.
The ChipsBank UMPTool is the correct flash utility for restoring damaged
firmware.
I was about to take my Dremel tool and cut this damaged Centon drive into
a few pieces, before tossing it in the trash. Three computers listed this
flash drive in My Computer and Device Manager. I still believe this is a
firmware problem, not physical damage. Before I toss it in the trash, I'd
like to find the correct flash utility and try restoring the firmware.
