Hey there, Maxikk.

Normally flash drives shouldn't need any additional drivers in order to run properly and the Windows mass storage device driver should be enough. Please make sure that you've installed the correct driver and that this is its latest version.
Other than that, I'd suggest that you try the flash drive with a different computer/device as well, to see if the same thing happens.
Since you don't have important data on it you could try reformatting it, to see if that helps. Some manufacturers even offer formatting tools for their devices, so you could give it a try with yours and check the website of the manufacturer for such a tool.

I know you've mentioned that it's not recognized by Disk Management, but this is pretty strange since it has a drive letter, so would you be so kinda as to post a screenshot of what you see in Disk Management as well?

Hope that helps.
