So, I was having the same problem as the subject I have written. I saw the same exact post and I read through the whole thing and it ended with no definite solution. I decided to continue this subject with the same title because I have now found the solution to this little (or big) problem of ours.
What I did was:
- opening the device manager ( Windows + X),
- go to "memory technology devices",
- collapse it,
- then right click on "Realtek PCIE CardReader". This is the driver that is installed on my laptop. Could be the same as me, or different on your device. Just search the driver that have the name "Card Reader" on it. When you have done that,
- click on properties,
- click the Driver tab,
- then click on "roll Back Driver". And there you have it, your SD card can now read the Micro SD adapter.
I am not really sure this works on all devices that have the same problem, but it fixed mine and I hope to share the same to those that have the same problem.First step
