USB drive not present under ‘My Computer’.

Current post is on how to get the USB drive under My Computer.


Even when you see the USB icon in tray, the drive icon is not present under ‘My Computer’ folder.

Steps to get the USB drive:


1. Right click on ‘My Computer’ folder and select ‘Manage’.
2. Select ‘Disk Management’ under ‘Storage option’
3. On lower right hand side, you should be able to see the USB drive.
4. Right click and select ‘Change the drive letter…’ and assign some letter which is not associated with any other things (floppy drives, hard disks, network drives)

The drive will appear with the assigned letter.


Appreciate your feedback via comments. Thanks.
