When I follow the instructions included with SP85318 when I run the Cloud Recovery Tool and format what is labeled as being a 16GB USB drive using default allocation size and FAT32 I end up with a drive that reports having about 14.1GB free space and isn't selectable from the menu in the tool as being a target for the install (the darned PDF file included with this SP shows a screen print of just such a drive (14.1 GB Free) being used successfully!  Has something changed with formatting defaults in newer Win10 builds?  Should I be using a different allocation size or format like exFAT or NTFS?  That doesn't seem to help me.
