Windows 10: How can i "resize" an 32gb sd card to be read as 1gb?

I need the card to be read as 1gb for it to be used in an old camera. How can i do that?

:)

 

SD card/SD card reader no longer working

Bradleyb, in your Device Manager do you have anything listed in Storage Controllers? I get an entry for MMC/SD. I just checked a 1GB SD card and a 4GB SDHC card, both worked in File Explorer to show their contents.




Side note: A caveat for such cards is that if they are to be used in a camera they need to be formatted in the camera, not in Windows.

 

Phone is not reading the SD card.
