Hello.
I used my 64 GB PNY flash drive to make a bootable Mac OS (El
Capitan/Sierra as shown in https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201372)
installer on MacBook Pros. Today, I decided to reuse this flash drive in
Windows. When I connected it to my old, updated 64-bit W7 HPE SP1 box, I
was unable to reformat it. I tried Computer's Disk Management, but still
wouldn't let me format. I could delete volumes, but not new volumes. I
had to use my Linux/Debian stable/Jessie box's gparted. What was the
correct way to reformat it in 64-bit W7?
Thank you in advance. :)
