There is a flash drive "Transcend 16Gb"...
used to store Word documents..
suddenly stopped working..
not automatically mounted..
gparted - does not see.
lsusb doesn't see it.
sudo fdisk -l - doesn't see it either)))..
Question: Is this the end???.. or is there some tool to resurrect the device??..

Good afternoon.
I have bad news for you ...
Buy a new one, this one has outlived its age.
