i dont think there's a way to "fix" floppies. just check and see if that one still works. if not, get another.
In school today I took my floppy disk out of the drive before it completely finished saving so it basically duffed up and now it asks me if I want to format it. I have all my stuff saved on my computer anyway, so I don't mind if it's wiped off the floppy but I was just wondering, is there any way that I would have been able to get all the stuff from the floppy back...like is there a special way of fixing the floppy so that it works again or is it just crap now?

If you pulled it out while the drive was writing to the floppy's File Allocation Table, it's done for. Just get a new one, you can pick them up for like, Ł1.80/50 disks...

Oh yeah, I know I can just get new ones for really cheap, was just wondering if there was any way of recovering the stuff I lost on that floppy. Thanks for your help

they're dead for good after you do that. that's why floppy disk technology is dying, albeit slowly.
