Windows 10: Lexar USB flashdrive not being recognized Windows 11

I've been using my Lexar flash drive religiously for the past 2 weeks with no issues so far, but when I put it in this morning it didn't get recognized. It only gets called USB drive D: and it shows no filename or files in it. On top of that it still shows that it has storage but nothing pops up. I have really important files on it and I'm not sure what to do anymore.

:)

 

After Win 10 Update 1511, Windows Create Recovery Drive does not recognize Lexar s25 USB 3.0 32 GB Jumpdrive.

After Windows Updated my PC to Win 10 Pro 32 bit, I ran the Windows Create Recovery Drive utility and created a recovery drive on a Lexar s25 USB 3.0 32 GB Jumpdrive. All went well, and I successfully booted from the new recovery drive.

After the 1511 Update, I tried to run Wndows Create Recovery Drive utility, but it would not recognize the same drive mentioned previously. I tried multiple times, and I finally game up on the Lexar s25 Jumpdrive. Windows File Explorer recognized the Lexar
s25 Jumpdrive, and I could move files to the drive. To get around the recovery creation problem, I substituted another Lexar USB 2.0 8 GB drive which the recovery utility recognized and successfully created a recovery disk.

My PC is USB 2.0 compliant, but the Lexar 3.0 USB drive is USB 2.0 backward compatible. Any ideas?

 

Some USB Devices not recognized in Windows 10

Hi have Windows 10 Pro insider preview 10532 64bit Pro Intel i7 desktop PC.

I have multiple USB devices connected, USB 3 & 2. The USB HDD is working however my Samsung phone and kindle are no longer being recognized. The steps followed so far:

• Uninstalled all USB devices in device manager including controllers
• Flashed BIOS to latest version
• Updated USB drivers for the devices from manufacturers sites
• Tried new USB cables

Please note: both devices are recognized by my Windows 10 Lenovo laptop.

I really don't want to fresh install, please suggest any diagnostics I can try.

Thanks
