A while back I used a 16GB 3.0 USB to make a bootable USB for Remix OS. It worked, but I decided that I didn't need it. Can't remeber what I did, but after getting rid of it off the USB I found that my USB is now a disk drive! It won't let me format it or use diskpart on it.

any help to return to a storage device?

Thanks! ;)

try going to control panel and view devices and printers, then remove the usb drive and put it back in, it might help. http://prntscr.com/cqsi3l
