Thank you for not stretching this to 10 - 15 minutes for no reason. Very useful
Eight years later I used a large flash drive to experiment with Linux and found the problem you solved here. After I did my fiddling with Linux I discovered that the drive couldn't be used for any other purpose. With this video I followed step by step and solved the problem, now it is usable again! Thank you very much!
great vid easy and I got my 16gb flash drive back. thanks from uk
I just want to thank you for all you videos you've made. I learned a lot through every single video. It gave me an interest in technology and now I'm looking into CompTIA Certification. Hope to see an increase in uploads and honestly, you deserve more subs in my opinion.

Extremely useful, thanks dude! MemTest86 partitioned a flash drive I had from 2g down to 250mb (and didnt work anyway). Couldn't merge the partitions back into one contiguous one! Worked like a charm.
Thanks man, This was extremely helpful.

It work as expected. thank you bro
Thnx dude, Windows didn't showed my ubuntu programs on it so I couldn't delete them, now it worked, thanks!
Thanks. I flashed my 8 GB USB with windows 10, and this somehow destroyed the partition. Your tutorial helped me fix it.
Good Video , simple and fast . keep it up !
This helped a lot, for some reason my flash drive was registered as 3 drives and little space in all of them but after what you showed me, boom problem solved.
very nicely explained and nice to see the closeups of screen while doing the usb in a side panel. otherwise would have to do full screen and keep switching back and forth. usually use 2 laptops to do tutorials sometimes
you're a life saver. Awesome easy to follow video
Dude you are awesome thanks for this extremely helpful tutorial.

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!! i tried to install chrome OS on my USB drive to try it out. but then the program that said it was installing it onto my USB drive actually just made 23 partitions and formatted it in a way where windows can't read it. THIS VIDEO SAVED MY USB DRIVE THANKS SO MUCH!
