A bad card is a possibility. Put your backup on it as a test.

By Reader, you are referring to TT Home, Operate my device?

Do you have another card?

Confirm that everythhing is on the card & the internal memory is empty.

Open the device with windows explorer. Cut the internal memory contents. Paste them into a new folder on your desktop.

There is not an internal folder. Internal memory refers to your devices root directory.

Confirm that you cut & pasted everything in the root & that the internal memory is now blank.
