If you initiate a Mac Drive (Thumb or otherwise), I think you get a choice of how to format the disk and you want to use FAT32 as the format (I haven't done it in a while and don't want to reformat a thumb drive to experiment).
Also, if you renamed the thumb drive on your Mac, Windows might not recognize it. Windows & Mac OS use different "naming" conventions and you have to be careful.
From what I know of Windows, TInker's solution to finding it on your Windows machine should work, but I hardly ever use Windows, so I really don't know enough to give advice on that side of the equation.

I will only use the thumb drive on the Mac from now on. The program I was gonna move from the PC to the Mac would not work anyway. I will buy a new program for the Mac on Amazon.
