With quick formatting, the entire disk space is marked as unused, and the data is still stored on the disk for some time. It makes data recovery relatively easy. In addition, compared to full formatting, quick formatting takes much less time.

As for full formatting, this process is not so speedy, since all sectors are checked and, as a result, they are overwritten with zeros. File recovery is possible, but it will not be so easy. In any case, try to do this as quickly as possible, in order to avoid overwriting the flash drive with new data.
