But you do not need to do it this way!
Just create your USB drive with the PE or Windows installISO, and create a new folder after you create your USB drive and copy the software your wanting to install
on the new OS!

Subject: Re: Trying to format a krupt usb stick
By reducing the 64 GB partition to 40 GB then creating the Windows installation partition, I was hoping that I could save installation files for programs for any new install.
But, as I previouslya said, I did not get the choice, as the program comverting the .iso image to USB that all partitions on the USB would have to be deleted before it could
creat the partition containing the Windows install.
By the Way, I did try to use, DiskPart to remove the 7.5 GB, with no success.
So back to the internet to see if anyone has any mor suggestions.

Hey,
Dave!
But why do you need to use two partitions?

I would delete the larger partition, if it existed but, when the program I was using to create the Windows installation partition from the .ISO file, would be deleted from the
memory stick, I had to agree, even though, I had reduced the maximum available storage space to 40 GB, to make sure there would be enough space for the smaller Windows installation partition.

Sorry I hadn't been following this thread, but have you tried deleting not the 7.5Gb partition, but the larger one instead? Just a thought.
I have a 64 GB memory stick, on which I created a partition to install Windows from an ISO image.
Unfortunately, when I tried to use the Windows Partition and Format utility to remove the partition containing the Windows installation and return the memory stick back to 64
GB, I got an error telling me that the "Delete Volume function was Unavailable", which meant that the partition could not be deleted/removed.
Following the information you gave in your previous message, I downloaded and used the ImageUSB utility.
The problem is, that when I selected the option to zero the USB Memory stick to return it to its maximum storage capacity of 64 GB, ImageUSB got rid of the information in the
Windows installation partition but, it did not delete/remove the 7.5 GB partition, which was the size of the Windows Installation partition.
Any suggestions as to what I may have not done correctly?

I'm not quite sure what "corrupt" means in this instance.
It is possible for thumb/jump/flash drives used to create bootable media can seem to lose a lot of the capacity they once had. The folks who created MemTest86 have a lesser known utility,
ImageUSB, that has as its primary purpose creating multiple bootable USB drives using the same ISO image at one time. It can also be used, however, to reclaim that "lost" space on those drives that experience it by using the "Zero USB drive" option in
the utility.
I've had 2 USB thumb drives that have had the "lost capacity" issue after being used to create bootable media and using ImageUSB to zero them out again has reclaimed it each time.
