    Username automatically chosen for me when formatting.


    When I format, my username is already picked for me. And I don't know why. I think it has to do with when I log in to my Microsoft account when formatting. Because it doesn't let me choose my username when I format.



    Is there a place where the username it's automatically using can be changed to something else? I looked and can't seem to find it / figure out where I can change it so it doesn't keep automatically making these random letters my username.



    Thanks guys. Sorry if this is dumb or n00b question, but i'm lost on this one.

    How To Format A Write Protected Flash Memory ?

    ¿You already tried this one?...

    Run CMD


    1. diskpart
    2. list disk

    Then in the 3º step, put the correct number of disk in the list for the usb flash (if it's listed in disk 3, then you'll have to write select disk 3).

    2. select disk #
    3. clean
    4. create partition primary
    5. select partition 1
    6. active
    7. format fs=fat32
    8. assign
    9. exit

    with that commands you will format the flash drive in fat32, if you have a large drive you can select also "format fs=ntfs" in step 7.

    good luck!
