Windows 10: Formatting USB Drive E: Writes on C: Instead - Seeking Assistance

I am currently facing an issue while formatting my USB drive E: exfat. Initially, I monitored the process, and it was reading from E:. However, upon returning after a break, I observed that it is now writing on my C: drive, and there is no activity on E:. I confirmed this through the taskbar's process activity, and I am certain that I initiated the format for the USB drive. I cant attach the screenshot directly here, but here's a link to it:https://imgur.com/a/gwlKxkt

Unable to format USB drive in Windows 10

IF windows are not able to format USB drive then apply these manual steps as follows:
First open run command box > Now, write diskpart and hit enter > Once
Diskpart is open > Now writing the commands, one by one.
Command 1: List disk
[Now, it will list Disk 0 and Disk 1 in your PC. Clearly Disk 0 is your hard disk and Disk 1 is the USB flash drive.]
Now, write the commands given below One by One.
Command 2: Select disk
Command 3: clean
Command 4: create partition primary
Command 5: active
Command 6: select partition 1
Command 7: format fs=fat32
[In the above command fat32 is chosen as a file system, if you want to choose NTFS, you can choose that as well.]
It will take time. Do not close the window before it's completed.
