    USB Recovery

    Hi Janie,

    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

    Please reply to the following questions to get a better understanding on the issue:

    • Are you getting any error message?
    • How are you creating the recovery USB?

    However, you can follow the steps from Create a recovery drive
    to create a recovery drive.

    Hope it helps.

    click the top spoiler and then look down to recovery.

    All of the suggestions in the old threads were consolidated into that one.

    How to reformat USB Recovery Drive


    Thanks again for helping. Yes, I've found and tried those instructions prior to posting. Nothing seems to work. It is ridiculous that Windows basically trashes a perfectly good USB stick when it creates a recovery disk. Their should be a way to clear it off so you can use it again but I guess not. Probably going to just give up and toss it....they are cheap enough these days.
