Micro SD Card & Windows 11
My SD cards aren't reading. My desktop is only giving the connection sound nothing in device manager. My laptop is showing a unknown usb device in device manager.
I have https://www.amazon.co.uk/Reader-Adap.../dp/B0CJFKJ2Z8 The desktop has a dedicated sdxc slot. I tried various micro SD cards into various sdxc then into either the desktop sdxc slot or the usb adapter. This is all plug and play stuff. It shouldn't be an issue. |
Re: Micro SD Card & Windows 11
Assuming Win 10/11, click on Start and type 'disk management' to bring Disk Management up. It may need a simple volume to be created, so you can assign a drive letter and format it.
The fact that you're getting the connection sound shows that it is at least being detected, but without a drive letter Windows can't deal with it. I had this problem with my 4TB M2 SSD - it was detected, but not showing as a drive and so I couldn't do a thing with it. Once I created a simple volume it was detected like any other drive. Whew, I thought, abandoning nightmares of returning it as defective. It now lives quite happily in my laptop, split 2 parts Win 11 to 1 part Linux Mint (I cloned the original 2TB SSD, and Win 11 has not objected. Linux, of course, couldn't give a toss. :p:). Having said that, you're right - P & P was supposed to do away with all this nonsense. |

I format the card in my Nvidia shield. It's now working :woot:
