I put some files on a flash drive at home last night (PC), and now I'm at work (also PC), and when I put it in the slot, nothing happens. I go to drive management, and it doesn't show up there either. I have another flash drive here, and it works fine.. So it's not the usb port.. The flash drive in question has songs on it, and they worked in my car this morning too, so I think the thumb drive is fine.

I have about 5 drives at work,), could it be a drive letter issue? How would I resolve that if that is the case? Any other ideas?

Sorry for bumping, but I've just faced the same problem. Do you remember how you solved it?
And of course, any other recommendations are welcomed.

Firstly, try connecting the flash drive to another port or device to determine whether the issue lies with the slot or the flash drive itself. If the problem persists, you may need to consider reformatting your drive.
