Hello Sir,
This is Ghanshyam, I made my 8GB pendrive bootable. when i was done, i tried to revert back to use it as a normal pendrive. i formatted it. the file system is showing nothing. it suppose to be FAT32. it is showing nothing. when i connect it to window7 it appears as a removable disk. now i feel i lost my pendrive, i mean it is with me but its dead, became useless. Please help me so that i can use it.
Regards,
Ghanshyam

Hi Ghanshyam1990,

Could you tell me what you see in Disk Management? The drive has no file format and appears to be not initialized? Could you upload a screenshot? What options do you get when right clicking the pendrive? Is the format option active? I strongly recommend you to try formatting the pendrive while in Safe Mode. Another option is to open Command Prompt and use the following commands:
Diskpart
List Disk
Select disk n (where n is the number of the drive)
Clean
Exit

Press Enter after every command and go back to Disk Management. Is it possible to format the drive?

Hope this helps
