Why do I get "Access to a CIM resource was not available" even tough i run powershell as a-CodePudding

I'm trying to make a script to format a usb drive to fat32 and copy paste an iso content to it. It worked but after a day, I restarted my PC and I no longer have the right to use Clear-Disk and New-Partition commands. I checked my code line by line and the error occurs here:

Clear-Disk : L’accès à une ressource CIM n’était pas disponible pour le client.

This is my first post and powershell project do not hesitate to tell me if i did something wrong. Also i'm french, sorry for the poor english quality. (by the way im using powershell 5.1 if this can help)

    #formatage
    $result = [System.Windows.Forms.MessageBox]::Show("Launch l'install? (erase USB drive)", "ISOFastInstall" , 4, 48) 
    if ($result -eq 'Yes') {
    Clear-Disk -Number 1 -RemoveData -PassThru -RemoveOEM #error here
    }
    else {exit} 

    #chose usb drive letter and create partition 

    New-Partition -DiskNumber 1 -UseMaximumSize -DriveLetter E -MbrType FAT32 #error here too

I found why it isn't working properly, the first time I tried running the script I did it in powershell (running as admin).

The problem is that I used Powershell ISE (also running as admin) to edit my script and even if it run as admin Powershell ISE isn't able to run clear-disk and new-partition.

If someone know how to fix this in Powershell ISE i would be glad to here it, for now i will use the normal Powershell and notepad . Thanks for the help.

I received an Access Denied when the drive was in use other than that it worked.

New-Partition -DiskNumber 1 -UseMaximumSize -DriveLetter E -MbrType FAT32 | Format-Volume

This "Format-Volume" formats the drive at the end

Update

Change drive letter to access USB drive (Disk Management)
- Try to run Scripts again.
Run disk checking to check and fix USB drive
- Right click the USB drive unable to run the script and choose “Properties”.
- In the pop-up window, click “Tools” tab and click “Check”.
- After checking, try to run Scripts again.
- Run check disk from Command Prompt
- Run Command Prompt as administrator
  - chkdsk g: /f command, where "g" refers to the drive letter of the partition on the USB drive.
