I burnt the USB stick with the Ubuntu ISO, and can readily install Ubuntu with that pendrive. But when I plug it in Windows, Windows does not detect it.

Can I make Windows recognize it.

  • Why should it be detected by Windows? Why would you need it? – Pilot6 Jul 19 '18 at 12:51

you should know, that windows only recognizes file-formats like FAT NTFS and else DOS-formats

when usb-stick has an unix-filesystem it happens that it is not readable for windows, unless you use the correct drivers.

Check this out:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/ext2fsd

Its a program/driver to be able to browse ext2/3/4 filesystems from windows.
