This is on a Windows 10 machine, though I think it's the stick. I have been trying to make a USB bootable through diskpart but I can't seem to shake the last part:

DISKPART> list disk
Disk ### Status Size Free Dyn Gpt

Disk 0 Online 238 GB 0 B *
Disk 1 Online 3864 MB 0 B *
DISKPART> select disk 1
Disk 1 is now the selected disk.
DISKPART> clean
DiskPart succeeded in cleaning the disk.
DISKPART> create partition primary
DiskPart succeeded in creating the specified partition.
DISKPART> active
The selected disk is not a fixed MBR disk.
The ACTIVE command can only be used on fixed MBR disks.
I'm not sure why this is not working so if anyone else has an idea I'm all ears. Please note that I have done other sticks without issue.
