I have a Problem with my usb drive. I checked device manager but it
says the device is working properly. But, every time I check my
computer and look for F:\ (Usb drive) My computer says it was moved or
removed. If anyone can help please do!!! Thank you.

Could be a defective USB case. Try it on a different PC.
 
It's probably trying to use a drive letter that already being used. Try
reassigning the jump drive letter in Disk Management. Start|Run|diskmgmt.msc

Thanks, but no good. There is no sign of the (F:\) USB drive any ware
in disk management. Just the (C:\) (Hard Drive), (D:\), and (E:\) (CD
drives) Drives. If you or anybody else that knows about another
solution that would be great. And I'll provide any information that's
needed.

My USB slots are built in to my computer... But they both (Used to)
function on the (F:\) drive.
 
Oh, and if it helps, I tried plugging in a Mini digital camera (Those
Tiny key chain ones ) into it and my computer detected it fine but not
through the (F:\) drive.
 
You don't seem to realise that your USB case contains some
electronics. They may have developed a fault. This is why you
should test it on some other PC.
