I have just formatted a pendrive to convert it from a bootable usb to normal usb.

After the formatting process it is not recognized by the file manager but it is visible in disk utility.

here

What should be done in order to cause the file manager to recognize the pendrive?

  • Your pendrive space is not allocated. Run gparted to do it. You just need to click into you unallocate space and create a new one. – Redbob Sep 11 '17 at 14:38

  1. Click on the 3 lines in the top-left corner. And then in the format disk option.

  2. In the open window, be sure to select no partition. And select the method to format the device.

  3. After that, click in additional partition options(gears) and select to format volume.

  4. Choose the label name you want, and then if you'd like to erase your data and, after that, the type of format you want.
