Well today my Sansa e260 player suddenly froze and stopped working since then I have tried connecting it to the computer or try starting it up the Scroll wheel light lights up but other than that it no longer responds.
That problem is fixed, but I cannot get rid of the Music it is all corrupted and I cannot gain access to the Music section to delete it, also formatting doesnt work.That problem is fixed, but I cannot get rid of the Music it is all corrupted and I cannot gain access to the Music section to delete it, also formatting doesnt work.
Well tired that, it will let me Format via WMP but nothing changes the Music is still stuck on there, it is almost as if it ignores the Music folder.Well tired that, it will let me Format via WMP but nothing changes the Music is still stuck on there, it is almost as if it ignores the Music folder.

sounds like a firmware program problem and will have to be replaced. You could download an updated firmware but you will have to get a pc connection.
After your device is plugged in, are you able to go to
"my computer" and see a drive folder that has your device on it.
Try prerssing all the buttons on the Sansa's face at the same time holding it down for a few seconds until the screen shuts down then turn it on again. This should work
Download the Sansa Recovery Tool from the Sansa website.
Format - Erases Everything: Connect your Sansa player to the computer and open Windows Media Player. Click on the Sync tab. Pull down the drop down menu underneath the Sync tab by moving your cursor over the Sync tab and left clicking on the little black arrow underneath the Sync tab. Highlight "Sansa 1GB" (wording may vary slightly), and then select "Format." - this should erase everything.
Firmware Upgrade- Erases Everything: Get the latest firmware upgrade from Sansa - it updates the firmware and erases every song in the player all at once.

Try this: disconnect the player from the computer, hold in the volume + button, and reconnect the player to the computer while holding the volume + button in. Keep holding the volume + button for an additional 5-50 seconds. Windows should eventually go into recovery mode and revive the player- it will pop up a window that says Found New Hardware Wizard.
