Windows 10: SD Card Not Detected In Windows 11/Anywhere

Hi. It seems I've trawled the whole of youtube for an answer and checked a number of webpages - but I cannot find the solution to this SD Card not being recognised in Windows 11.What I must first say is that I tried a different SD Card in the reader and it worked fine, so it's not the reader or drivers or anything like that.

My Lumia 635 is not detecting SD card

Hi,

You may try the following steps:

• Try to remove the SD card and insert it again, make sure it's seated well without using too much force.

I have a micro SD card that my phone detects and can access but when I plug it into the PC with a USB/SD card reader the PC can't open it. It appears in My PC as a drive but with no space consumed bar on it. When I double click to open the PC hangs and sometimes loses it's screen. What could be the issue?
