Solved
Jampit -  
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
