Ok so yesterday my 2tb WD passport stopped showing up on my laptop. It doesn't show in disk manager, device manager, or the bios. Tried all the usb ports on the laptop and still nothing. Plugged it into another laptop and it works just fine. So I then tried every solution i could find on google including, uninstalling the usb hub driver and rebooting, changing power settings from balanced to performance, turning off usb selective suspend, reinstalling windows 10 and even installing manjaro linux to see if it was the operating system. None of these worked and now I am here. I have discovered something though, I downloaded usbdeview and saw that there was an unknown device connected that didn't show up anywhere else while the drive was plugged in. I uninstalled the unknown device and unplugged and replugged the passport and it detected and showed in usbdeview and in my file manager!...and then immediately stopped showing up 60 seconds later and usbdeview showed the unknown device as connected and the passport as not connected. I Have no clue what is causing this issue at the point or why it suddenly decided to happen yesterday out of the blue, if anyone has some ideas im open to them before i go insane.
