Windows does not detect SD cards during file exploration.
Windows does not detect SD cards during file exploration.
When performing a disk scan in disk management, no activity occurs if there are no errors or issues detected.
It seems unclear whether SD cards have a dedicated security feature or if they're treated as temporary storage. That might affect compatibility. Your usual USB drives function correctly, which is reassuring.
Tomorrow came and the issue persisted. I checked Lenovo's site and tried multiple drivers—Intel serial IO, Intel chipset, Intel storage—and nothing helped, even after restarting the laptop. Later, I tested on the same USB port inside a Windows 10 virtual machine, which resolved the problem.
