Hi.I was creating a Windows 10 Bootable usb with Windows media creation tool.My pendrive that i'm using is Kingston Data traveler 100 G3.
The media creation came up with an error code , i dont care about that . the problem is that the computer reads the disk as ESD-USB and it says there's nothing in there. I open up the usb and saw a couple of files .I can't do anything with it now. HOW CAN I MAKE MY USB NORMAL AGAIN?? so i can use it as a normal pendrive.

1) Download Gparted from http://gparted.org/download.php and make a live CD/DVD/USB. I use Rufus for such thing.
2) Reboot your computer with Gparted disk with your USB drive plugged in. (You can plug it in later too)
3) In case you are new enter following at prompts: "Boot to ram or any option", "Use default keymap", "eng or any other language", "0"
4) Identify your USB disk in the devices list after Gparted has started. There would be as many entries in drop down as your storage devices (HDD & USB). Always check size.
5) Delete all partitions what so ever in your USB. Then create a single or multiple partitions and use NTFS or FAT as file system.
6) Click on apply. It should not take more than a few seconds to complete.
7) Reboot and...

Beware: Always check partition and device before deleting partition. You may end up deleting everything.

Why don't you just format the USB flash drive; return to the appropriate MS Windows 10 site and install the Win 10 setup files on your "Windows Media Tool". If it develops the flash drive is defective, pick up a cheap 4 GB (or slightly larger) flash drive to create the Win 10 Windows Medial Tool with the Win 10 setup files and go ahead & install the OS.

Were you trying to format with Gparted or Win?
