Can't see USB drives when creating restore key


running windows 2012 r2.  patches installed. had 2 computers wanted restore prior backup. let's windows 10 upgrade didn't go , built in uninstall wasn't good.

anyway, went 2012 r2 , tools , clicked button create key.  problem no matter size usb stick place in server, never shows in pulldown.  tried 2gb, 8gb, 16gb, 64gb.  different brands.  refreshed bunch , nothing.  sticks show in windows explorer physically there , recognized os.  idea why don't show used restoration media?

i'll end doing pxe restore still not working right.

thoughts?

thanks.

do drives show removable drives in windiows explorer?  in if right click eject , option?

you can use diskpart manually format thumb drive fat32, mark active , copy files

c:\program files\windows server\bin\clientrestore

ps:  love pxe boot :)
