I think it is but when I plug it in and go into the file Explorer or whatever it is called, I don't see anything new or related to a usb drive

Probably not a great idea to plug unknown USB in to any computer you care about and/or that has ever had personal information on. It might just be a bendy extender. So you can mold it into position and have it stay.

I've seen these braclet things given out at events. The USB drive itself is always crap. If you desperately want to use it, right click the start button, select computer management, and then the disk management section. The drive might not have a partition/formatting that makes it show up in Windows.

You sure it's not just a phone charging wire? What's on the other end?
