Make sure you insert it correctly!

(A stupid person put that there.)

Better answer:

-You can get it to work by:

-Ensuring that the USB is not physically damaged, that's one of the worst cases.

-Making sure that(if it is a flash drive and there is a lock) that you put the lock to unlock to make it non-read only

-By making all items inside it enabled, on a windows computer, you can go to properties >> Hardware.

------In a flash drive, or any type of storage hardware, make sure you enable "Generic- Compact Flash USB Device".

-By making sure that the Drive isn't hidden(Go to folder properties and go to viewing on Windows)

-Making sure that you check for errors

-Making sure that the USB is plugged in right
