[Solved]Arch can't detect USB stick.

When i plug in my usb stick, that I used to be a arch linux bootable drive and is currently formatted using rufus, it doesn't show up on in files, not in disks app, not in disk usage analyzer.

Here are some outputs:

dmesg -w:

Re: [Solved]Arch can't detect USB stick.

Did you update your system including a kernel update and haven't rebooted yet?

pacman -Q linux; uname -a

symptoms and log read like usb_storage module can't be loaded which is an usual condition for that case.

PS: Please use [ code ] and not [ quote ] for outputs and edit your post in this regard.
