Usb problems

Hello. I need help with my usb-stick. I can't see the files that's inside by using Explorer. And I'm sure they are not hided. Please help.

Can you see them on another PC?
Can you see the drive at all in My Computer?
Are you sure there files on the drive?

Is this also to do with the 7.5yr old thread in newsgroups you replied about a virus?
Are the 2 things linked together do you think??

I read that post when i replied earlier, which is why i asked the above.

How do you know their there if you cant see them? Does the drive show some used space?

Delayed Write Fail.

Is it possible that they were never copied over to the stick? Did you use the safely remove hardware tool? At least wait until the light stops blinking.

If you can open the drive and view the files, and the one you want is not there...it was never copied to the stick.

I aggree with Surfer, not using the safley remove hardware option or removing drive before it's completly ready causes this, so again, data never finished writing to the drive...
