Unmount and insert again.

Created a text file on it. Plugged the stick in my desktop PC. The stick was mounted correctly and I could read the file.

Finally reformatted the stick to vfat.
All worked OK.

Great, but it seems updating the related libs was forgotten?

Comment 6 Morgan Leijström 2020-12-02 20:13:14 CET
Aha! Thank you for the quick reply.

I first thought missing lib was the reason gparted show greyed out exfat option for formatting, but now i learned gparted have due to patents chosen to not be able to do much with exfat.
