So I have my usb that I use for alot of things. Then one day after using it with my friends laptop, it just stopped working. It has a LED in the back that lights up when connected but it no longer lights up and my computer doesnt recognize it. Is there any way I could make it work again or at least recover the files.

Note:
My usb port does work so thats not the problem. And can any1 explain why this happened, thanks.

It appears that your flash drive was damaged by static electricity.
