I found a thumb drive in an empty office building and started using it. I put a bunch of infor on it and now when I plug it in it shows the thumb drive and the drive letter but once I try to open it there are no files. When I right click and go to properties it shows the correct properties, such as free space & used space, but it won't show me the actual files when I try to open the thumb drive. Also it has no "volume name" when I right click & go to my properties, could that be the problem. If so how do I find out what the "volume name" should be? There are no identifying marks on it so I don't know who the manufacturer is to ask. I'm using Windows XP SP2. Please help, thanks.
