PEN DRIVE AND OTHER DEVICES LIKE IPOD'S DOESN'T DETECT IN COMPUTER

In normal cases when you think your system is not detecting pen drives, it could be a case when your computer detects your pen drive but does not show up in my computer.

2. Locate UpperFilters registry value. it resides in the following registry subkey:
