I have had the same problem periodically in the past find it to be really annoying. In fact, then I put the card in the PC about 7 partitions showed up which was screwy.
The problem that I had with tools like SD formatter is that if the OS sees all the partitions then I found that SDF did not understand that they were all part of one storage device. Of course, I could have done something wrong.
I have found two hacky solutions. However, YMMV particularly with option 1 and so be warned!
1. Put microSD in SD adapter and format in my camera(!). Yes, strangely, enough it works. That does not help for eMMC though.
2. Use my Mac to format it. This works okay too and should work for the eMMC with the adapter.
