I use standard USB thumb drives on my MacBook Pro. I use an adapter. Lately, when I connect, I can't find the thumb drive in the Finder even though the adapter and thumb drive indicate they are getting power. When I remove the thumb drive, I don't get the message that I did not eject it before removing it.
MacBook Pro 13”, macOS 10.15

What precipitated this change in behavior?
Did you try a different USB drive ?
Did you try a different adapter?
Did you try a reboot?
Did you try resetting NVRAM/PRAM http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1379

My suggestion would be to get a different adapter and test. Eliminate the obvious and easiest first.

I rebooted the computer and everything works as designed. I should have thought of that first. Thanks for every ones' input.
