So.. I upgraded to windows 11 and almost everything works fine except 1 thing and its that my usb pendrive when I connect it to my pc it doesn't show up on windows files manager but it does appear on Disk management.

How do I fix this what can I do? any help?

Does Disk Management show any partitions on the drive? If so, it's not getting mounted with a drive letter for some reason, and you should be able to right click on the partition in Disk Management and select "Change Drive Letter and Paths..." to give it a drive letter. After that it will show up in File Explorer.

 

If there are no partitions, check it on another computer. If it works on the other computer, back up everything on the drive and try formatting it on the Windows 11 computer.

 

If it also doesn't work on the other computer, cry I guess.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Is it being blocked by Defender?  It's behaving like something is blocking execution of it.  Many commercial programs act this way.

Make sure the device is not disabled in Device Manager.
