Fake Format v1.05

Fake Format was created by popular demand, and pretends to format a specified drive. Very realistic dialogs, summaries, and even hard drive chatter.

Product Description

Fake Format mirrors the Windows "Format" functionality. Once the program is stated, no matter which buttons are chosen, the program simulates formatting the specificed drive. The user is unable to stop, interrupt, or cancel this format. Once the fake formatting is complete, the standard Windows format summary appears. Upon closing this summary screen the program can be exited.
