EOS 80D won't save photos, corrupts memory card

I have a 80D and it won’t save photos. When I take a photo the spinning loading symbol comes up and then corrupts the memory card. I have tried multiple different cards in different sizes.

Where does it say "loading", generally the only notice you get is the little red light.

I assume you are using full size cards, not micros with adapters.

Yes full size cards that I have used since the camera was new. I was wrong it does not say loading. It has the spinning wheel on the screen and then says SD card is corrupted.

Have you tried to do a low level format in the camera?

From the manual. This is the wrench menu. I always low level format.

Thank you for your help but everything I have said has been wrong (my wife isn’t very good at explaining things). The camera takes and saves photos but when the memory card is put into a computer all the images are corrupted. Have tried multiple different cards and it always happens.

Are these full size cards? Or micro with adapter?

Did you try the low-level format?

Do they play back fine on the camera? If so, the images on the card aren't corrupted.

Have you tried using the USB cable?
