Yes, a virus-infected memory card can be formatted, which typically removes the virus along with all data stored on the card. However, simply formatting may not always eliminate more complex malware, so it's advisable to scan the card with antivirus software before and after formatting. Additionally, ensure that the device used for formatting is secure to prevent reinfection. Always back up important data before proceeding with formatting.
