Cannot create folders to USB flash drives
#1
I know this is operating system related.  I was able to do what I needed using the Live USB version of Linux Lite 3.4 64 bit.  I cannot create a folder on flash drives that are FAT formatted.  Last week I mistakenly downloaded and ran the 32 bit version of Etcher.  I ran the 64 bit version (the version I needed) afterwards, and things seemed ok.  Now it doesn't, and I cannot get any FAT formatted flashbacks drives to allow me to write to them.  The permissions say root is the owner, but when I try to change it via the terminal, it doesn't make the change.  I've even tried using older restore points to no avail.  When right clicking in Thunar within the flash drive's storage space, the Create Folder, Create Document, and Paste options are grayed out.

I think I need some help cleaning up whatever mounts to sdb because I also created an sdb1 and I think that's just made things more messy.
