My USB flash drive is not working. I don't know why. I may have used it to boost my PC and now when I plug it in my PC I cannot see it.
I want to use my USB flash drive again.
DISKPART inbuilt utility from Windows manages memory partitions.
It can be invoked by entering "diskpart" in command prompt without quotes.

During Windows boot, it starts several software, utilities & services. Most of the operations are done from RAM. Windows copies so many things from HDD to RAM. Most of the user program and Windows OS executes from RAM.
At the time of shutdown it closes all running software, utilities & services.
Most of user time is consumed during starting of system and own application. In hibernation during system power off process Windows copies all RAM content in to HDD in "hiberfil.sys" file. During system start it loads above file in to RAM instead of fresh boot sequence.
