How to Recover Data from USB Flash Drive

The size of the USB flash drive indicates that there is some data in it, but why it is not showing the data. Why I'm unable to see my data ? Where is my Data ?

This usually happens when you scan your USB flash drive for viruses.
A single command is the answer for these questions.
No expensive software or tools are required for this data recovery.

To recover these lost files from your USB Flash Drive, you just need to follow these steps:

Step 1: Open the Command Prompt from the Start Menu( If you're using Windows XP or Windows 7). If you're using Windows 8 or 8.1 press WIN + X or right click the Start Menu button, this will open a Power User Menu from where you can open the Command Prompt.

Step 2: Check the drive letter of your USB Flash Drive( for ex: H: I: etc)

Strep 3: Now in the Command Prompt just type the drive letter of your USB Flash drive like this H: and hit ENTER. Now you're into your Flash Drive.
