    USB Flash Drive not showing up in file explorer


    I have two computers side by side. I know the flash drives are good because they work on my other computer. When I plug either of them into my main PC, I hear the "ding" that they are being detected, but they won't show up in my file explorer with my other drives. I have checked device manager and disk manager and don't see them in there either. I have tried multiple USB ports on the PC.Appreciate any insight. The only reason I am trying to use them is because I need one to run MemTest86 for a blue screening issue I am dealing with: here. My computer is newer and has pretty good equipment:

    :)
