If you just want the short version of it, open a command prompt (cmd) in elevated mode and enter the following sequence of commands:

create partition primary
select partition 1
active
format fs=fat32 quick
assign
exit

Replace {number} with the drive number. Just be sure that you double check the correct number of the disk.
