    Hi! Good day , Jerry here, an independent advisor. Here to help you.

    based on the information that you have provided. You are using the incorrect format of USB. Instead of using "exfat" please us FAT32 instead.

    yes i know and i'm planing clean install of win11 again, but this time i just wonder because i use this usb as exfat in normal usage so i will want to format it to exfat again . i dont know why this error occurs on settings page.

    You are getting that error because of the format of your flash drive as it needs to be FAT32 not exfat

    i dont think its a deliberate error because sometimes i dont get that error and i can format it exfat even through settings menu,

    for example if i format it through file explorer first then im able to format it through settings too without error. to exfat of ntfs.
