how do I issue a Command prompt?HH

How do I read the files on a flash drive inserted into the USB connector my laptop?

Are you trying to open files via command prompt on your flash drive?

You need to explain exactly what you are trying to do.

If you are looking for a list of files, try the following. Replace the D: with the drive letter assigned to the flash drive.

Code:

---

dir D:

---

Thank you for your help. I am a very confused user, trying to
access the flash drive sitting in the USB plug in my laptop. I used to see a "D" or an "E" when I issued an "open" command on my OOW (WORD-like, word processor) but I no longer see any such drive options.

How can I try to see what's on the fllashdrive? ...bkar

When you plug the flash drive in, you don't see a drive letter in Windows Explorer?

Have a Windows Explorer (File Explorer) window open and visible when you plug in the flash drive. You should see a Drive with a drive letter added.
