USB drive won't show in File Explore
I (finally) have a new Windows 11 laptop. I need a 32 GB USB to see if it has anything on it. It shows up in File Explorer as greyed out; When I try to open it, I'm told to insert a disc. The USB is inserted, so why can't I see what's on it? I also have 3 new 32 GB USBs I can't get into, even to format them. What's going on?

KERNEL_SECURITY_CHECK_FAILURE (139) - A LIST_ENTRY has been corrupted
I get this BSOD, but it only occurs very sporadically...it can take weeks of being online to occur.Since I've built this PC, I had been investigating it and I had sent back almost every component barring the video card. All my drivers are up to date as far as I know.The PC recently bluescreened, and came up in "test Mode" I'm going to disable this. I have now turned on the "verifier" for checking the drivers out, will see if that gives back anything.This is the crashdump :-Microsoft (R) Windows Debugger Version 10.0.22621.2428 AMD64 Copyright (c) Microsoft Corporation.

Outlook New is unusable because: Defender
Switched to Defender after years of using another security tool.Seems to be working fine, but now I want to switch to using New Outlook.And I get:So, Microsoft Defender SmartScreen blocks outlook.office.com.I understand that this is the 'reputation-based protection' kicking in.Why does Microsoft think that their own reputation is so bad that they need to protect me from themselves?Fortunately Outlook Classic still works.Is this just me or do other people also have this issue? Should I simply disable smartscreen altogether?
