Windows 10: SD Card reader

Hello


I have been using a SanDisk SD card with windows 10 on a PC

Everything was working fine, I ejected the card and used it with a Surface to transfer some files.


I returned the card back to the PC and it will not detect that there is a card in the slot.


I rechecked the SD card in two other devices and it works fine.

Not sure what to do??

SD card/SD card reader no longer working

Hi. New to this so not sure of category.
I have a Lenovo G70. Windows 10, 64bit
My SD card reader has stopped working.
In Device Manager, the SD card is not listed.
I can't format the card as it is not listed.
I cannot locate the card at all as it is not listed anywhere.
I've tried chkdsk and get 'Cannot open volume for direct access'
I don't even have the icon displaying when micro SD card is inserted.
It did work previously but I had errors. Scanning and fixing did not help.
I place the SD card in my Android phone and it works fine.
Please help!
Thank you for any assistance.

Hi,

There are several reasons why your SD card reader is not working. To assist you better, kindly answer the questions below:

• Have you made any changes to your computer prior to this issue?
• What are the other troubleshooting steps have you done so for?
• Have you tried to use another SD card reader and see if it is getting recognized or detected by your computer?

Regards.

Bradleyb, in your Device Manager do you have anything listed in Storage Controllers? I get an entry for MMC/SD. I just checked a 1GB SD card and a 4GB SDHC card, both worked in File Explorer to show their contents.




Side note: A caveat for such cards is that if they are to be used in a camera they need to be formatted in the camera, not in Windows.
