curious on how it corrupted your usb, is it showing that you have a very small amount of space left of what? even if you reformat it

 

and @duncanbullet follow your posts please

 

usually when you write an iso to a usb it unallocates the extra space. to see if thats the case just go to your disk manager and see if it looks like this,

if it does then there is a way to recover it

Im not sure, i put a windows 10 on the USB and plugged it in to the computer (usb 3.0) and rebooted the computers, then it said the same thing it did before, ( Reboot and seletct proper boot device or insert boot media in selected boot device and press a key) 

So i plugged it back into my other PC and it said: " k:/ is not accessible. The File or directory is corrupted or is unreadable"

 

Tried the same thing with my LT and got the same error message

 

 

ALSO:

 

I will try the disk manager when i get home, im at work right now.

None of the Windows operating systems are designed to be run where a USB drive is the OS drive. The reason is because of how Windows detects USB devices during startup, which is why it will look like it boots properly, then say it can't read the drive.
