MicroSD cards appear in terminal but not in file manager

Hello! I'm returning to this forum with the same username. The old user don't exist anymore.

I'm adding more confusion to the SD card reader problems epidemic.

before insert card reader:

I use two different readers, both are detected but not shown in file manager.

Any clue? Thanks!

Is there a card in the reader? If there is, is the card formatted?

Here's what I get when I plug in just the reader:

Here's what I get when I put a SD card into the reader:

When I plug in a reader with no card, nothing shows in the file manager. When I plug in the card, the file manager opens automatically, the card is mounted and ready for use.
