i made a live usb using this solution to the syslinux error but now i cant format my usb stick for regular tasks using gparted

i tried this other solution to format my usb but when i try to make a new partition in fdisk it says "this partition is an extended partition" and that i need a primary partition to create a new partition

please help

if someone could please provide a permanent and easy solution it would be great

im willing to provide extra information (just provide the code to access it)

This sometimes happen due to corrupted partition table. To repair it just create a new partition table. This can be done by opening Gparted then navigating to Devices > Create partition table
