Why is my USB name always CAPS?
Why is my USB name always CAPS?
The reason is fairly simple. You also have the option to make your USB name or USB volume name upper and lower case.
The all CAPS of a USB name is due to your flash drive being formatted as FAT or FAT32. Windows will not allow FAT or FAT32 devices to use lower case letters.
To use lower case letters, or upper and lower case letters, simply format the drive as exFAT or NTFS. Note; we do not recommend formatting a USB as NTFS … so better to stick with exFAT.
Here are some screen shots to help better understand exactly what to do.
