Hello,
After formatting my hard drive, it appears as an icon with a question mark on it.
How can I format it to NTFS for normal use?

    I can see the disk grayed out when I use this command, but I have no option to format it. The command is also grayed out.

    We will try with DiskPart then:
    - Start DiskPart: for this, start --> run (shortcut Windows + R) type diskpart and click OK

    - List the disks: type
    List Disk

    - Choose the disk to format
    Select Disk xx
    (xx being the number representing the USB drive)

    And execute these commands, 1 by 1 (1 command = 1 line)
    clean
    create partition primary
    format FS=NTFS Quick
    active
    assign

    and finally exit
    exit
