Hello everyone,
I used a USB key that I made bootable and I would like to recover it now to put files on it as simply as possible. But formatting doesn't work. When I try to open the key, I get the message:
Insert a disk into drive USB (D:).
Thank you in advance for your help.

- Run (Windows + R)
- Type cmd then click enter
- In the window that opens, type "diskpart"
- list disk
- select disk x (x being the number of the external hard drive)
- clean
- create partition primary
- format fs=fat32 quick
- active
- assign
- exit to quit diskpart
exit to quit command prompt
