Windows 10: Sketchy usb drive

I used a sketchy USB drive that I thought was safe, when I plugged it in instead of the usb showing me the files it showed me a weird shortcut with its name, out of stupidity I ran it, windows caught it as a trojan "Trojan:Win32/Wacatac.H!ml" I asked windows defender to remove it, it says that it did. But after further investigation in the protection history it says that it affected this file "C:\Windows \System32\printui.dll" should I be concerned? I've noticed no changes on my computer after this event, it happened same day of posting this, before a 6-7 hours. I am sorry for the poor format

help. USB drive isn't assigned a drive letter.

Any usb flash drive I plug into my computer isn't assigned a drive letter. The physical drive shows in the "safely remove hardware" but it doesnt show up in disk management. I have tried to populate the volume thru the safely remove hardware properties window and it does pop up in the list but it doesn't stay there. This isn't a format or assign a letter problem. It's more complicated then that. Maybe one of the services needed for usb drive management was disabled? Suggestions needed. btw external usb harddrives work fine.

 

Installing windows off of a USB stick

Step By Step from vista:
From admin cmd prompt

3. clean

6. active
7. format fs=fat32

9. exit

Copy Windows Vista's DVD ROM content to the Flash Drive

xcopy d:\*.* /s/e/f e:\ (d being your vista cd and e being your usb stick)

And that's it, boot off your usb disk

 

USB boot for bios update

Did the first step. It already doesn't work. Note the capacities and drive letters M:/N: The HP utility is about to format my raid-1 volume containing my 2 750gb drives. It thinks it's the usb stick. I can not select any other drives in the HP utility. My 512mb usb stick is U:.

Any other suggestions?
