great tips and delivery! Thanks a million!
Hello and happy new year. Correct me if i make a mistake but i saw that for every fix you suggest, the flash drive is recogmized by rhe windows. You don;t provide a solution if the usb flash drive is not recognized by the windows. Anyway, thank you very much!

Help. My problem is different. My Pen drive I was using for last 2 years, is not recognized by my PC now. But that Pen drive is working alright in other PCs. I checked with all other Pen drives in my same PC, it working alright and recognised by my PC. What to do ?
Assigning a new driver letter fixed the issue for me!!! Thank you for this video!!!!!
Thanks. Mine didn't work until I moved it to a third usb port ! The device manager hint was useful because that's where it showed itself and I realised it was working.
thanks bro. solution 3 helped me to resolve the issue.
Thank you for your guidance
great and cool tips from you bro.. thank you

i have a wd external usb drive that is coming up as cd drive if i format it i will lose my data as i have very important files i watched your video towards the end you say if the usb is formated i lose everything and then you say if i format it i can recover it so i am at a lost to how to proceed
wo thank you so much it helped me 🙏
A typical reason as to how this happens, is when a thumb drive is formatted by Rufus for a new windows boot device. When used to install Win 11, it landed up being a 'C' drive. This happened to me. After doing a new windows install, it was no longer showing up on old computer. It was because it had become a 'C' drive. Changing drive letter as mentioned in this video solved the issue.

Hi there, thank you for your question! Try restarting your computer and reconnecting the device, running the Windows USB Troubleshooter, trying a different USB port or computer, uninstalling and reinstalling the USB device and controllers from the Device Manager, installing the latest chipset drivers for your motherboard, and installing the latest Windows updates. If none of these work, your USB device may be damaged or faulty and need to be replaced.
Hye bro please help me to fix sd card cannot store 4GB above files...i want download games for my pc on Android 😢

I guess your pendrive is formatted to fat 32 file system maybe you should try to change its file system to ntfs so it will allow you to transfer more than 4GB at a time... But unfortunately ntfs file system won't work with androids. If you want to use that pendrive on android you should leave it with fat32. You can view whether it's fat32 or NTFS on properties of that pendrive.
No 1 cause is actually the thumb drive itself being broken.

Yes I also noticed this, which is very common, often formatting if possible it still creates problems.. I've come across software that supposedly solves this problem, but it only seems to work very occasionally and even then after a couple of uses of the pen drive the problem comes again.. I found that using an old win xp laptop I was able to format anything something win 10 and 11 had major problems doing. I've put this down to the many security issue's that were resolved by later win o.s but made problems like this harder to solve.. Anyway yes, despite the mention of virus issues nothing was mentioned about it
Its work. Thankyou

Hi there, thank you for your question! If you have already triedchecking the USB connection, updating the drivers, changing the drive letter, assigning a new file system, and attempting data recovery, but your USB drive still shows as 64MB raw instead of its actual 16GB capacity, there are a few more steps you can try. First, test the USB drive on a different computer to determine if the issue is specific to your computer. Second, try using a different USB cable to rule out any cable-related problems. Third, consider using disk management tools like "MiniTool Partition Wizard" to diagnose and repair any issues with the drive. If none of these steps work, it's recommended to contact the manufacturer for further assistance, especially if the drive is still under warranty.
ist only one drive it does not recognise, i have another 4 that work
This did not work for me on my drive PC does not detect my drive but when I turn on hidden items I can see my drive gray out with no details neither can I format it How can I fix this?.. It was working perfectly when I inserted it into a PC and started copying files and it stopped

@@RecoveritDataRecoverySoftware Thanks for the answer : Well it's strange, now when I insert any pen drive or sd card (new also) it says : Insert disk to drive E: If I open the Manager it sees the volume but it is not possible to format it or anything, even in CMD. (where I tried multiple commands and nothing worked) I Removed and installed all usb related drivers on the device manager, i've tried to restore to an earlier point before the etcher, I've tried a usb hub, I went on the Bios and tried different usb options, and more... But when I connect a external Hard-disk-drive (with an actual disc) it reads it without problems! Only solid state media is not getting read. I tried all options I was able to find online using Chat GPT and dozens of tutorials like this (BTW this was one of the best). So any ideas? I am desperate because I use sd cards a lot and this problem is forcing me to use my main pc less. I find myself recording what I want to an external HDD, connect it to my laptop and from there write to any SD/Pen or read.

Hi there, If your external hard disk is not showing up in disk management, it's possible that there is an issue with the connection between the hard disk and your computer. Here are some steps you can take to troubleshoot the issue: Check the cable and connections. Check if the hard disk is spinning up. Check if the hard disk is recognized on another computer. Check the power supply. Try data recovery software. Download Recoverit here: bit.ly/3ZoowNK If none of these steps work, it's possible that the hard disk has failed and may need to be replaced.
