Scenario

“I inserted my flash drive to MacBook Air to include a pictograph in an excel file, which was very important but nothing happened. The MacBook Finder shows that the USB flash drive is mounted, but it wasn’t showing the files, so I safely unplugged the drive and plugged it again, but it was empty – according to my MacBook or at least what, it seemed to me.

Anyway, the question is how can I retrieve my files from MacBook Air flash drive in this situation?”
