Hi,

Try the flash drive on another computer and see if it shows a file.

Re: Pen drive show NOTHING !! All files gone...

No, still cannot show files. I tried most of pc with different OS. Still unable to show all files..

Additional: i forgot to tell that before this case happened... I plug out my pen drive without click "safety remove". Is my pen drive damaged?

Sounds like the file system is damaged. There are programs that claim they can fix this never used them. Heard good things about this one.
