USB device not recognized on my laptop but recognized in other pcs/lap
Hello everyone..
Yesterday my laptop pushed a new Win 10 update, and all went fine, or at least I think so.
But today I see that my Sony WALKMAN - which I used with no problem until now, can't be recognized anymore.
Basically it just shows as (E:) or Usb Drive E: but when I click it it says "Please insert a disk into E:/" like there is nothing there.
Now the interesting part is.. if I go to Device Manager I see it and clicking on properties etc t says it's working fine.
But if I go to Disk Management, the Drive shows as 14 gb of unallocated space and it's greyed out.
However, if I put it on my brother's laptop, it works perfectly and it can be opened, music moved into it etc - it shows as Healthy - Primary Partition in Disk Management. So it doesn't seem broken...
It's the same on each of the 4 usb ports btw. But, other usb devices (2 phones, 1 tablet) don't have any issue and are detected.
What could have caused this? I tried the basic Disable/Enable in Device Manager and also Uninstall Driver.. It doesn't do anything, it appears back when I replug it in.
No change in Safe Mode and no change after sfc /scannow
If anyone has any idea I'd be happy to try anything to fix this..
Thanks!
