Note 7 will not read usb flash stick

[AC Question]

My note 7 will not read from my 64gb dual usb stick. I connected it with the note 7 usb c adapter. This works brilliantly on my note edge and is a lightning fast way to transfer photos movies large files to my pc. The note 7 cable refuses to connect to the laptop, it is recognized for an instant cuts off and repeats over and over the connection bleep. I cant find an answer but have found the cable connection to be a common problem. Am i missing something or is the new usb connector totally different to the old mini one?
