Windows 10: USB drive configuration

Hi!Each time I slot in a USB drive in my PC"s port, a notification pops up with two or three named drives.I have to go to This PC to identify my USB drive.Can you help me with USB drive configuration settings?Thanks!* Moved from Mobile Devices

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.

 

is there any demand for a system configurator?
