Without using "Usb Startup Disk Creator" or any other program, I simply want to delete data from my usb stick. I expect that the usb stick's memory would be freed, in other words, that I will have free memory in the stick in the quantity equal with the size of the deleted data. Instead of this, if I choose to delete data by pressing the button "delete" from the keyboard, the file disappear from the pane and "rubbish" fill up. Then I check the usb stick form "properties" and I find that the memory has not been freed, it is the same as before I delete the chosen data. That happens even if I empty the "rubbish" folder. If I choose to delete data by "transfer to rubbish" option, it happens exactly the same as I described above. I later connected the usb stick in windows xp, and I found that the data I wished to delete were still 'untouched' in a file named "Trash". I hope you consider this report.
