If that doesnt work out try this

Go to run and type

cmd and click ok

Now run these commands and press enter


chkdsk f: /r

where f refers to your USB letter

If you get access denied,open command prompt as administrator

Can you write your data on the USB now?

For the low disk space issue try this

go to run and type

diskmgmt.msc

RIght click on your USB>>>delete volume

Now right click and again select '' create volume''

FOrmat and check if that works

If that doesnt work probably your USB is corrupt
