Hello

 

Could you provide some screenshots of the way the drive is seen in both your and the other system? 

Are you trying to keep the same name or the same drive letter? 

I would go to Disk Management and right-click on the Flash Drive's volume, then Properties and then, in the General tab, change the drive's name. This should set it properly and you should be able to see it as you want.
