Windows 10: Windows 10 ruins all my SD cards

I have been having problems with Windows ruining SD cards. If I plug one in i can look at files but within a couple minutes the SD card is corrupt and it is asking to reformat. I have tried multiple card readers and multiple cards. I have ruined 6 SD cards. I was just trying to get pictures off the cards and on to my computer. Before I can transfer anything it is corrupted and wont allow me to access anymore. I have tried chkdsk /f commands, re-formatting even though I know that wipes everything and nothing works. I even got a third party reformatter and it can't even reformat these.... And

:)

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.

I would suggest you to check the SD card with any other device to make sure there is not any corruption with the SD card.
