How to Fix Pen Drive/Flash Drive Not Detected Issue? [4 Solutions]

[@chrismor0669]

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!

THANKS ALOT BRO IT WORKED. WE HAD LOST HOPE AND APPLIED FOR RETURN BUT AFTER USIN THE LAST METHOD U SHOWED TI WORKED

[@JasperMulder100]

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.

Thank you. Mine solved.

Hye bro please help me to fix sd card cannot store 4GB above files...i want download games for my pc on Android 😢

[@judejeevanmahendran]

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.

[@IvanaPCM]

what can I do if my usb is not recognized at all by windows, it doesn't show on file, device manager or disk management

[@RecoveritDataRecoverySoftware]

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.

Hi there, normally it is suggested to try the trial version to check if your files can be found first before buying. If so, then it is suggested to buy to recover them back. Try Recoverit for free here: bit.ly/3Yte0n0

Just watched your video my USB says 64mb raw but it's a 16gb I've followed your advice step by step but to no success please help if you can.

[@RecoveritDataRecoverySoftware]

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.

[@aboibrahim4069]

My USB flash drive is not detected at all meaning that there is nothing shown in device manager whether the USB flash drive connected or not connected to the computer

[@RecoveritDataRecoverySoftware]

Hi there, Thank you for your question. To fix a USB drive not showing up on your computer, please try restarting your computer or plugging it into a different USB port. Check Disk Management for the drive and assign a drive letter if needed. Hope it could help you.

[@rqueque9667]

I watched the video and didn't saw where you addressed the virus/ malicious drive aspect that you mentioned at the beginning of the video.

[@adrinathegreat3095]

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 not even showing up on disk management

[@RecoveritDataRecoverySoftware]

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.
