Windows 10: My New Thumbdrive

I just bought a new 1TB Flash Drive. I assumed it came formatted. I now have some things backed-up on it but now, each time I insert it into my PC USB, always says there's an error on the drive. I let it repair but my new thumb drive will no longer allow me to upload videos. I have some there but it won't allow more. I can Copy or Move my Videos to my thumb drive and they show up. I think it's fine. When I remove and replace the drive, the new videos aren't there. Can anyone help an old man?

A Partitioned Thumbdrive (HELP!)

I somehow found that my thumbdrive was partitioned... How do I fix this problem? I would like it to be all in one partition.

EDIT: Pic...

See the top part of the list, that is a HUGE part of the TD i cannot use. I want to. The 50 mb one at teh bottom is what i can use, (named GEM).

Windows Updates and Thumbdrive recognition

I recently installed some updates on my Lenovo T440p and now my laptop isn't recognising the thumbdrive that I regularly use. I only get a message saying format the external drive. Any suggestions, I don't want to lose everything on the thumbdrive by reformatting
it.
