USB flash drive is not showing up anymore !


hello group,

My friend has a situation, that when i inserts his flash memory (USB) into his computer, it does not find it because, the computer already has a drive called H and this masks his jump drive. now i know that there is a way to change the name of his jump drive on this computer. Is that going through Manage > Storage?

Regards,
ak

Manage> disk management > locate usb drive, assign another letter
so, right click "My Computer", select Manage, then choose "Disk Management" Locate your USB Drive, right click it to Change the drive letter.
