Today i installed ISO on my USB through Rufus. At the end of unpacking progress it gave me a crash and now my USB is in read-only mode. I tried all ways on Windows and even something on live Ubuntu. Nothing helps.

In an Ubuntu live session you can use the MKUSB's "Restore to a standard storage device" feature.
How to install MKUSB (internet connection in the live session required):
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:mkusb/ppa # and press Enter
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install mkusb mkusb-nox usb-pack-efi

I got this error, when typed last command: "E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages."– user879571Mar 6, 2018 at 19:23

Do a full update/upgrade and then the last command again:
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

Nope, its still gives me same error.
The following packages have unmet dependencies: mkusb : Depends: pv but it is not installable Depends: wmctrl but it is not installable Depends: guidus but it is not going to be installed E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

So you need to open Software & Updates and select all the repositories before proceeding.– user772515Mar 7, 2018 at 11:43
