pendrive is not showing it's complete space!

When we make our pendrive bootable , we create partition for that. Some times when we format a bootable pendrive , It does not show the complete space of the pendrive because of that partition which you have created for making it bootable . I have also faced this problem that is why
i am sharing it with you.

The solution for this problem is given in these simple steps :

step1- connect your pendrive to your computer.
step2- open command prompt of windows.
step3- now type 'diskpart' .(without inverted comma's)
step3- now type 'list disk' it will show all the hard drives on your computer with disk no.(like disk 0)
step4- select your disk (in which the problem) using the command 'select disk 0' (here i have selected disk 0          you have to select whatever is your disk no). 
step5- now type 'list partition'. it will show all the partitions on that disk.
step6 - now delete all the partition one by one after selecting them by giving following commands
'select partition 0'
'delete partition'
as above delete all the partitions.
step7- now type 'creat partition primary'
after this command type 'exit'
now remove your pendrive and inser it again now a prompt will appear to format the drive do not format from there it can creat problem again and now go to run by pressing ctrl+r type there 'diskmgmt.msc'
there select your drive and right click on that and select the format option and use the fat32 default format,
after formating the device is ok now.
you have done!
