What version of Mac OS are you demonstrating? You should specify in your tutorial. If it is Mac OS X Ventura, you are incorrect about the format to select. Mac OS Ventura (13.1) requires APFS format.
Wow this actually worked for OS Monterey after searching through many forms and videos. You can't format the Volume, you have to unhide the parent device and format it for the volume inside to be formatted for encrypting.
Depends how did u do it: File system formats available in Disk Utility on Mac Disk Utility on Mac supports several file system formats: Apple File System (APFS): The file system used by macOS 10.13 or later. Mac OS Extended: The file system used by macOS 10.12 or earlier. MS-DOS (FAT) and ExFAT: File systems that are compatible with Windows. Apple File System (APFS) Apple File System (APFS), the default file system for Mac computers using macOS 10.13 or later, features strong encryption, space sharing, snapshots, fast directory sizing, and improved file system fundamentals. While APFS is optimized for the Flash/SSD storage used in recent Mac computers, it can also be used with older systems with traditional hard disk drives (HDD) and external, direct-attached storage. macOS 10.13 or later supports APFS for both bootable and data volumes. APFS allocates disk space within a container (partition) on demand. When a single APFS container has multiple volumes, the container’s free space is shared and is automatically allocated to any of the individual volumes as needed. If desired, you can specify reserve and quota sizes for each volume. Each volume uses only part of the overall container, so the available space is the total size of the container, minus the size of all the volumes in the container. Choose one of the following APFS formats for Mac computers using macOS 10.13 or later. APFS: Uses the APFS format. Choose this option if you don’t need an encrypted or case-sensitive format. APFS (Encrypted): Uses the APFS format and encrypts the volume. APFS (Case-sensitive): Uses the APFS format and is case-sensitive to file and folder names. For example, folders named “Homework” and “HOMEWORK” are two different folders. APFS (Case-sensitive, Encrypted): Uses the APFS format, is case-sensitive to file and folder names, and encrypts the volume. For example, folders named “Homework” and “HOMEWORK” are two different folders. You can easily add or delete volumes in APFS containers. Each volume within an APFS container can have its own APFS format-APFS, APFS (Encrypted), APFS (Case-sensitive), or APFS (Case-sensitive, Encrypted). Mac OS Extended Choose one of the following Mac OS Extended file system formats for compatibility with Mac computers using macOS 10.12 or earlier. Mac OS Extended (Journaled): Uses the Mac format (Journaled HFS Plus) to protect the integrity of the hierarchical file system. Choose this option if you don’t need an encrypted or case-sensitive format. Mac OS Extended (Journaled, Encrypted): Uses the Mac format, requires a password, and encrypts the partition. Mac OS Extended (Case-sensitive, Journaled): Uses the Mac format and is case-sensitive to folder names. For example, folders named “Homework” and “HOMEWORK” are two different folders. Mac OS Extended (Case-sensitive, Journaled, Encrypted): Uses the Mac format, is case-sensitive to folder names, requires a password, and encrypts the partition. Windows-compatible formats Choose one of the following Windows-compatible file system formats if you are formatting a disk to use with Windows. MS-DOS (FAT): Use for Windows volumes that are 32 GB or less. ExFAT: Use for Windows volumes that are over 32 GB.
should get a sharpy next time to write a hint on flash drive. IT maybe gone...most likely if you cant get in you can clear the flash drive & start over again. You'd have to hack into the flash drive, but you usually need software & special toolds for that + mac OS isnt easy to perform on as opposed to Windows/Linex. Maybe find a good computer store & they might do it for you for like $30-40.
