    USB stick not recognised by Windows?


    Windows 10 home fully updated: I have a usb 2 stick that came with a hardware package, the stick is supposed to have the needed software and manual on it. My problem is that Windows does not see the stick ( it doesn't exist ). I was wondering if there was a way to get Windows to see the stick so I can access the data?

    Any advice or help would be very much appreciated.

    :)

    Installing windows off of a USB stick

    Step By Step from vista:
    From admin cmd prompt

    1. diskpart
    1a. list disk
    2. select disk 1 (replace 1 with your usb drive)
    3. clean
    4. create partition primary
    5. select partition 1 (replace 1 with your usb drive)
    6. active

    Copy Windows Vista's DVD ROM content to the Flash Drive

    xcopy d:\*.* /s/e/f e:\ (d being your vista cd and e being your usb stick)

    And that's it, boot off your usb disk

    USB Device (USB Stick) Not Recognised by Windows 10

    Hello auggy! I did what you suggested. I have found greyed-out "USB Mass Storage Device" entry corresponded to not working USB Stick, uninstalled it, plugged back the Stick but unfortunately story is the same (see the snipping below). USB Stick is still
    not working. Any new suggestions?

    Actually this not working USB Stick is not a big deal, I can use thousands of other USB Sticks instead. But I would really like to find out, why this particular Stick is not working. What is causing that this Stick is not recognised. Actually the whole series
    of USB Sticks (JetFlash 700/730 - 8GB, 16GB, 32GB, 64GB) is not recognised on my computer, because they are all using the same driver. It would be the best to manually re-install driver for this particular USB Stick series (delete the old one's remains, install
    the new one), but manufacturer does not offer drivers at his download page.

    USB Device (USB Stick) Not Recognised by Windows 10

    Auggy, I will follow your suggestions of uninstalling Kaspersky IS before upgrading to Win10 Creators. I will wait until Windows Update offers me this upgrade. I know, I could perform this upgrade today, but I will wait for major Win10 Creators bugs to be
    fixed until then. After upgrading to Win10 Creators I will let you know, if the UsbHub3.sys issue is fixed or not.

    I have plugged "Unrecognisable USB Stick" in-to USB 2.0 port on my computer and there this Stick works fine, it is recognised. Problematic for this particular Trans***d JetFlash Stick (Series) are obviously only USB 3.0 ports, as you are mentioning above.

    Thank's for your help so far!
