USB stick not working in Windows after I installed Linux on my laptop.

Tried to plug it into my windows PC and it is showing a super small capacity however when I plug it into my Linux Laptop it shows the correct amount of space. What should I do? I tried the run/clean disk method on windows and it said I didnt have access (maybe cuz I encrypted my linux ?)

Reformat it in Windows as NTFS.
When it comes your time to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with the fear of death, so that when their time comes they weep and pray for a little more time to live their lives over again in a different way. Sing your death song and die like a hero going home.

edit: fixed it.

Just went to cmd promt and did disk cleanup --> then to disk management to reformat.

question is..will I be able to transfer movies from windows to Linux by using a USB ? Or do I need to download the movies from the linux laptop..If not..whats the best way to share files from windows to linux. Just upload them somewhere and download on the linux? I dont want to use the terminal that thing is annoying

Linux should be able to read NTFS, or you can do exFAT and that will work on both.

did you check to make sure the computer is plugged in and turned on at the switch?

It worked! It reads the USB and movies!

One more quick question. Is it possible to make a password protected folder in Linux? Should be easy like right click on folder and add password but not seeing it
