You need to determine the letter of the drive in which the flash drive is inserted. To do this, you can enter Windows Start menu (Windows logo in the bottom left) and click on Computer. Find the drive where you have the flash drive, and remember it.

Now to get a command prompt, you need to click the Start Menu again. In the Search space, type "Command Prompt." This should open a black window with the following:

Microsoft Windows [version (information specific to your computer)]

Copyright ---- (the year) Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.

C:\User\Home

There will be a flashing underscore (cursor). Type the following: Format G:

This should do what you hope.
