Reinitialize layout of usb stick

Hi, I am trying to use my USB stick to download Zorin lite for my wife's computer and I am in disks, but I get an error saying:

The partition can not be modified because it contains a partition table; please reinitialize the whole device.

I have no idea how I can do this. Can anyone guide me in the right direction, please?

Its 16 gb and has old zorin installation on it and I want to get rid off it and put the lite version on it.

I hit the gear icon and changed it to gpt but nothing happend. Now it looks like it just changed to gpt?!?

I tried both and I keep getting the same error. I am not able to partition the free space either.

HAhaha your kidding. It worked!

The universal fix for almost everything, unplug and plug again/turn off and turn on again, a classic :rofl:.
