    How to convert RAW partition to NTFS partition.

    Thanks for your reply. Apparently the convert drive to NTFS doesn't work when the drive is RAW. After following your instructions in step 2 I get message "convert is not available for RAW drives.

    Any suggestions?

    Troubleshooting a RAW flash drive

    Windows Doesn't see a flash drive?

    Hi Reece,

    Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community.

    I would appreciate if you could answer few questions to narrow down the issue.


    • What happens when you connect the flash drive?

    • Did you receive any error message?

    • Did you try plug in another flash drive?

    • Did the flash drive get recognized by the computer?
    I suggest you to try plug in a different flash drive and check if you are able to format the drive.

    I also suggest you to run the Hardware and Devices
    troubleshooter.

    • Type troubleshooting in the search bar.
    • Select Troubleshooting.
    • Select View all on the top left corner.
    • Click on Hardware and Devices.
    • Follow the on-screen instructions to run the troubleshooter.
    • Check if issue persists.
    Hope the information helps. Let us know if you need further assistance. We will be happy to help.

    Thank you.
