Windows 10: Cant connect USB storage or SD cards since windows 10 insider download

Cant connect USB storage or SD cards since windows 10 insider download

SD Card Storage not appearing windows

I recently partitioned my sd card (100gb exfat and 20gb ext4) so I could install apps on the sd card using link2sd. Everything worked out except that the sd card storage (100gb) doesn't show up in windows any more (just phone storage). This means I have to take out my sd card and put it in the computer to put things on it. Obviously, I would rather be able to just plug the phone straight to the pc with usb. How do I get sd card storage again to appear in windows?

 

I cannot open my SD card from the SD slot since I downloaded the new Windows 10.

Hello,

We understand your concern in this regard.

• Are you talking about Windows 10 anniversary update?
• How about connecting other external USB devices?
• Is this issue specific to the SD card?
• Did you try connecting the SD card on different computer?

Most of the problems arises with the incompatible drivers. Suggest you to check and install all latest drivers for Windows 10 from Manufacturer's website. You can search them using your device model number. Most probably
this should fix the issue.

Coming to the SD card issue, suggest you to check connecting it on different computer to see if it works fine there. Sometimes problem with the SD card or SD slot causes this kind of behavior. This might give us the clue on the
root cause of the issue.

Let us know how it went.

Thank you.

 

micro SD card corrupted?

Does your SD card work if you connect it to your computer?

If so, then what I would suggest is to backup it's content on your PC and format the SD card.

Once it's backed up, format the SD card through the phone.

Go to App List > Storage Sense > SD Card > Format SD Card to do that.
