I recently brought a MAC formatted external drive, but I have windows 10. Can I re-format my MD passport from MAC to Windows ?

Right click on the start icon and go to disk manager. From there, find the disk, remove all partitions, and reformat. You can also just right click on the disk icon and press reformat in most cases.

If you want both OSX and Windows compatibility, choose exFAT, if not, pick NTFS

Thanks Basroil, I did some of what you suggested.
I right clicked on what is the harddrive (No drive letter shown) but the box I get is all greyed out writing.
So I don't know to remove partitions ??
The only part of the drop down window that is in black writing is "Delete Volume"

Delete volume is the same thing for your purposes.
