Unable to format and recover space from a split USB Drive

Asked by djhogan in Removable Backup Media, Computer Hard Drives, Disk Partition Tools

Tags: External Storage

I have some USB drives that were split into two drives  one an Auto-launch with hyperlinks and one a data drive.  I was able to reformat the data drive by right clicking and select format, but not the auto-launch drive.   I tried de-selecting read only, but still got access denied.  Any easy way to accomplish this and make the USb device a single drive device that I can re-use?
