    help. USB drive isn't assigned a drive letter.

    Any usb flash drive I plug into my computer isn't assigned a drive letter. The physical drive shows in the "safely remove hardware" but it doesnt show up in disk management. I have tried to populate the volume thru the safely remove hardware properties window and it does pop up in the list but it doesn't stay there. This isn't a format or assign a letter problem. It's more complicated then that. Maybe one of the services needed for usb drive management was disabled? Suggestions needed. btw external usb harddrives work fine.

  3. My computer doesn't show usb drives in the list

    Hi Mike,

    There are a couple of reasons why you run into this issue. This can be associated with a corrupted Device Manager. Another possible cause is disconnecting a USB drive immediately without safely removing it from the Notifications area.

    For us to isolate the issue further, provide more details by answering the listed questions:

    • Have you made any recent changes to your PC?
    • Are other accessories aside from the USB drives recognized properly?

    As an initial troubleshooting, we suggest running the Hardware and Devices Troubleshooter. This automated tool has been proven to identify and resolve hardware or device issues. To do so, follow these steps:

    • Press Windows key + X and click on Search.
    • Type troubleshooting and select Troubleshooting.
    • Click on Hardware and Sound.
    • Choose Hardware and Devices.
    • Click on Next to run the troubleshooter.

    Another step we can try is by using the Windows USB Troubleshooter. This method had helped a lot of users experiencing troubles with devices not being recognized. Refer to this article:

    Automatically diagnose and fix Windows USB problems
    .

    We will wait for your response so we can help you further with this issue.

  4. USB drives not in list

    need list of usb bootable Operating Systems

    I am looking for a good list of operating systems you can run from a usb or dvd.

    If not a list, then folks can just post their top picks.

    I want these to run from the usb/dvd without installing on the system or getting in the way of the system that exists on the hard drive.

    Thanks in advance.
