How can you format the drive when the volume is still in use?

To format a drive that is currently in use, you need to first ensure that no files or applications are actively utilizing it. This often requires closing all programs that may access the drive and, if necessary, unmounting it. For system drives, you may need to boot from a recovery disk or use a live USB with a disk management tool to format the drive safely. Alternatively, you can use the Disk Management utility in Windows or Disk Utility on macOS to format non-system drives while they are in use.
