How to format a bootable USB drive

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
