try using this:
Search:All files and folders:Name of folder:Advanced options:Show hidden files and folders
If this doesn't work try any file recovery devices
After you get all the files out then Format the pendrive.Also see the manufacturers site if its a reputed brand like transcend or kingston and send a mail to the customer service they may help you out further

edit:If same thing is happening in whole computer
try this:
