Win10 and USB? [Resolved]
« on: December 08, 2015, 09:29:51 PM »
I'm running Win10 v10.0.10586 and for some reason I can't access any flash drives at all. Any ideas?  ???

Yes!   The all purpose triangle with an exclamation mark.

Did you check the manufacturer websites for W10 drivers?

This might sound strange but, last night when I shut down my laptop Windows had an update.
