Hi

Does anyone know how to remove data from a usb data memory stick?

I used it to transfer photo`s, and now want to transfer some more data.

My computer - select drive, right click and format

wallbash

Or select all photo's ( ctrl +A ) and hit the delete button.

Can you delete individual files? You do not need to format it.

Highlight the file and press Delete as per post #3.

Just right click with your mouse and select delete. or
Click on the photos you want to delete and hit the delete key on your keyboard. hit the ctrl key to select more than one photo at a time

Well what I do if I want to just delete everything is go to edit and select all, then hit delete
