Hello everyone, my problem is that my phone no longer recognizes my micro SD card. It's a Samsung Galaxy A3 2016, and all my photos are on that card, and suddenly it was no longer recognized. I would like to know how to make it work again if someone can help me, thanks in advance ;)

Try to read them from your computer using an SD to microSD adapter
If you succeed, make a copy of the contents of the card onto your PC.
Check that your photos are there.
Then, reformat your microSD card to ExFat format from your PC.
Reinsert your card into your phone. Reformat it from the phone.
Check that the card is recognized.
If it's OK, place the card back in the computer and restore the previously saved files.
Put the card back in your phone. Check that the photos are there.
If the phone does not display the photos in Gallery, install the "Rescan Media" program from Google Play. This program re-indexes your media files.
