Follow these instructions to format the disk as FAT32 (readable by Windows):
Click the dash and search 'Disks' and open it.
Click your memory stick on the left.
Look at the titlebar of the window, and write down the part that says
/dev/<something>, e.g./dev/sdb.Open the terminal and run
sudo umount /dev/<something>*, replacing with your disk (make sure to keep*), e.g.sudo umount /dev/sdb*. Don't worry about any warnings.Go back to Disks and click the menu button in the top right, and select
Format Disk. ChooseDon't overwrite existing dataandCompatible with all devices.Click on the free space and click the plus.
Choose
Don't overwrite...,Compatible with all systems...and pick a name.Confirm this; when done, you should see it there. If there's a triangle in the bottom right corner, click it.
Now, open Wine config from the dash. Go to the Drives settings and click the autodetect button - this should make it detect your USB stick. When done, restart the application and it should work.
