Why can't format/mrb be used on my computer?

FORMAT restores the hard disk's boot sector information.

I don't know what "can't be used" means.

fdisk /mbr mbr is short for master boot recode (Master Boot Record) Function: rewrite the Master Boot Record; it is an undocumented parameter of MS-DOS FDISK There is no such usage as format /mbr (because the MBR does not belong to any partition, it cannot possibly be associated with FORMAT, which is a partition formatting program)

format is used to format floppy disks and hard disks; usually you only need it when installing the system

Use format /? to view detailed information, but it's in English!
