1- Right Clic on the "This PC" icon (on the Desktop)
2- choose "manage"
3- Disk managment (under Storage section)
3- go to the USB flash which appears without letter.
4- Right clic and asign the letter.

Can you suggest a video for a 3 in 1 flash drive ? I bought it and it didn't include a name nor a user's manual. I can't open it. It won't open in neither my Lenovo chromebook laptop nor my iPhone SE

[randallreyes.]

mine said is not accesible and at bottom...incorect function

[inyalake]

My drive suddenly lost the assigned letter E: and now shows up only in Devices and Printers as 2267PRAM. None of the above solutions have worked. I am unable to assign a new letter as that function id greyed out.

[jimmyjohnson]

For Im lost before Im found ! Never got beyond the first step !

[muhammadmudassariqbal]

Amazing video, this really help a lot...

[tiffinhappy]

I had to go somewhere else. Way to much yacking. Get to the point!

My surface book does not have a USB Mass Storage Device to delete. Is this the problem?

[biruktesh]

Hey My sd card isnot showing its full size and it is RAW file system ...how to solve it

[atlantic_love]

The "Recoverit" software he's pimping is absolute rubbish. Will bog down your system, expose all of your files to the web, and the cost for the software is ridiculously expensive "per year". Screw that.

my usb can't be accessed disk management, or cmd or on my computer but when i plug it in it makes sound

[ebouchoc]

None of these methods worked. Windows sees the drive letter, but doesn't think there is anything there. "Please insert a disk into the USB drive" and Recoverit doesn't see the drive letter at all. It's like it is not there.

[XyMalious]

Seemingly, none of these things worked unfortunately. ☹

[SupremeEnlightened]

Nothing in here works :( It My problem is that the usb drive appears, and it shows the files, but you can't access the files or copy them. AND while I'm trying to use recoverit, the drive vanishes because it shows only like 30 seconds and automatically disconnects, and recoverit isn't fast enough... There is this like 30 seconds gap

[mzzzz]

The easy & most common solution to access a USB drive that seems broken is to just plug it into another USB port (the thing on the end of a USB cable). then the next time you can plug it back into the one that caused the problem in the 1st place (the one you usually use) & it will work until the next time it goes Kaaaa-Boooom. Thanks to my wife (she figured this out - and she is just a smart girl ! Don't get me wrong about this, I only mean it in goodness because most good people would never say a girl could figure this out over a boy).

[KryzysX]

bro can you help? that's bullshit!

[merou]

no solution, HP flash drive very bad, it is new I just buy it .

[greybeard]

Crap .. it didn't even see the usb drive .. not talking about recovery :)))
