# HELP: Format USB

Format USB allows the user to format removable usb devices.

Choose the target device, format (fat32/vfat, ntfs, ext4, exfat), and optionally provide a label for the filesystem.

By default, the whole device will be re-partitioned into one partition and then formatted per the user's choice.

When repartitioning the device, the user may choose a partition table type (msdos/mbr or gpt) or let formatusb choose based on disk size.

By default, msdos/mbr will be used on devices under 2TB.

Checking "Show Partitions" fill force formatusb to act on an individual partition instead of the entire device.

Checking "Show All Devices" fill remove the filter on usb or removable devices, showing all available devices or partitions.
