I am unable to get Windows 10 to detect it. When I put it into any USB Port, I get a messaged saying that Windows can't recognize it. When I go into Device drivers, I see "(Unknown USB Device (Port Reset Failed)
I've tried everything I can think of. I even thought that it might be formatted with Mac HFS, but i downloaded HFSExplorer and tried that, and it didn't work. So, i'm not sure if my USB Flash Drive is dead, or what's going on.
*****Thanks for moving this thread to the correct location. I honestly thought about it right when I pressed "Submit New Thread". I was gonna move it myself but I don't have that option*****
Only way to truly check the condition is by trying the Flash Drive in another Port, (to check that it's not the port itself), or to try the Flash Drive in another system, A family member, A neighbour, or if all else fails a local technician may allow you to check, or even a local CyberCafe.
If the result comes back that the drive is not working then you can try Sandisk themselves as they provide recovery media for their products
