Geeks - Open the "Computer Management" window by right-clicking the "Start" button and selecting the "Computer Management" option.
In the "Computer Management" window, click on the "Disk Management" option on the left side of the window.
Right-click on the USB drive you want to change the letter for and select the "Change Drive Letter and Paths" option.

Open the command prompt by pressing the Windows key + R on your keyboard, typing "cmd" into the Run dialog box, and pressing Enter.
Type the following commands at the command prompt, pressing Enter after each one:
diskpart
list volume
select volume X (replace X with the number of the volume associated with the USB drive)
assign letter=Y (replace Y with the new drive letter you want to use)
Type "exit" and press Enter to close the diskpart utility and save the changes.
Another option is to use the "PowerShell" command-line utility to change the drive letter for a USB drive. To do this, follow these steps:
Open the PowerShell window by pressing the Windows key + X on your keyboard and selecting the "Windows PowerShell" option.
Type the following command at the PowerShell prompt, pressing Enter after each one:
Get-Partition
Set-Partition -DriveLetter X -NewDriveLetter Y (replace X with the current drive letter of the USB drive and Y with the new drive letter you want to use)
Type "exit" and press Enter to close the PowerShell window and save the changes.
