Formatting a USB Stick Problem ?

[Robert11]

Hello,

I want to re-format a new USB stick I purchased
to the ExFat format.

I have Disk Utility opened
I have the Show All Devices Checked in the View Menu.

The USB Stick icon is on my desktop.

But I cannot get it to show in "Show All Devices"

There is no drive shown in the left hand sidebar.

What, as usual, am I missing or doing wrong ?

Thanks,
Bob
