I have a PNY attache' flash drive with 4 GB. I bought it from WalMart maybe a month or 2 ago. It was working fine for a few weeks until last week. I've been stressed out & depressed about it ever since, because I have critically important data. I can't afford to pay $300 out of pocket, & I don't trust those technicians. I'm afraid they might cheat me &/or take advantage of me, & even though my data is important to me, I don't want others to see it for privacy reasons. I also want to develop a new skill or ability by trying to do this myself.
The PNY company won't help me at all. They told me they only replace drives & not repair them or retrieve data. My flash drive won't read anywhere at all. I did some research, & from my understanding, the PNY drive stopped being recognizable since the library computers they have is Windows XP
, & I heard that the XP operating system is the reason why the drive stopped working. I just need my data. I don't care about the stupid flash drive. May someone please tell me step-by-step, in detail how to retrieve my data from a non-functioning USB flash drive? Thanks. I appreciate the help.
