USB drive wipe fails

CCleaner 3.21.1767, XP SP3, USB thumb drive MemorexTD Classic 003C. Getting "parameter is incorrect" at 20% finished when trying to wipe the USB drive. I can fill the drive completely with files but CCleaner fails. Problem is repeatable.

I have just searched for

"MemorexTD Classic 003C"

Almost every result is yet another driver for this device.

Many results link to problems with the brute

Some results indicate that a problem was resolved by a new driver.

No results indicating that they are still advertised for sale.

Is it possible you need to get a suitable driver before it can be wiped ?

Some USB thumb drive issues can be overcome by formatting them with Windows. So perhaps give that a try, and then try to wipe with CCleaner again. Also your CCleaner version is out-dated.
