Before using a USB drive, whether it's brand new or has been used in a previous election, it should be formatted.

In VxAdmin, select Settings from the side menu and select Format USB.

Confirm you want to format the USB drive by selecting Format USB, and again one more time. Formatting the USB drive will delete all files.

Your USB drive is now ready for use. Repeat this step for all other USB drives.
