It does not read floppy disk, why?

Maybe your drive cannot be used for a period of time after delivery or still see the content of the frist disks if your floppy disks are too old or the floppy disks get dust on it. Please Make sure your floppy disks are in good condition before use.

It still shows the files from the 1st diskette when you insert 2nd diskette?

please go to "more options" and choose the "refresh" in file explorer before it displays the new content. Or disk contents do refresh after double click the A: drive icon in File Explorer, then you can see the content from 2nd diskette.

Where is the drive icon? i cannot find it.

Windows 11/10 system has a lot of show/hide options for File Explore,so you maybe cannot see the drive icon named "Floppy disk drive (A:)" after bring up "Windows File Explorer", please bring up “Devices and Printers” and find the icon “TEACV0.0”.

Reading speed is slow, why?

Floppy disk is characterized by small capacity and slow reading speed, please give it some time to load the data, and please always wait for the disks to stop whirring before trying to do anything else.

We can see the files, copy and move them, but we cannot open it?

Because our computer was so new that it did not have correct software on it that would open some of the old files on the disks, you will need the specific application to open the file. It's software problem,not the drive.

This is a useful accessory for newer PCs that don't come with older drives.

Plug and Play. No special steps to get started. Very easy to use. This was purchased after an older computer finally stopped working but we had a lot of old FLOPPY discs that we wanted to recover data from.

It worked great! It’s plug and go. I found some blank ones. I was able to transfer data to them just for fun. This item is very easy to use. I followed the instructions on some comments and I was able to use it.
