Toshiba USB connects doesnt show up in windows and disconnects

hello. ive had this usb for maybe 10 years now. and around 4 years ago it would connect but it wanted to format and i didnt want to because i had data on it and with recovery programs i couldve recovered about half of the files but i didnt want to pay for the programs, so i left it hanging. now for 2 years the usb connects but doesnt show up anywhere and after a few seconds starts playing the disconnect sound forever every 4 seconds until unplugged.

The only thing ive been able to do is get it atleast to show up in USBTreeView but honestly i think its done for.

its 32 GBs and looks like this:

also i need the data on it if theres even a slight chance the data still exists.

if somebody would be able to fix it it would be a miracle.

There are two possible reasons for this happening.

  1. The hardware is physically damaged. The USB port that sticks out could have gotten partially disconnected from the PCB inside. So it's losing connection under its own weight. The only way to make sure is to open it up and check if the USB port part is still connected properly to the PCB inside,
  2. The controller chip inside on the PCB is broken. This is harder to diagnose without special measuring and testing. If it is broken, a donor USB stick of the same model could be used to swap parts. This would require de-soldering and soldering of usually pretty small parts.

What you can try is connect it to a different USB port in your PC or a different computer entirely to see if the behavior is the same.
