My computer will detect that I have my external drive plugged in, read it, and everything, but whenever I restart my computer it doesn’t show up unless I unplug it and plug it back in, which makes no sense to me. I’ve tried one of my friends external drives and his works fine, and I even tried wiping my drive and reformatting it and nothing has worked. Does anyone know how to fix this? Or if it can be fixed? Or why is does it?

If you have a WD Passport, be sure to connect the USB cable directly to the PC, avoid using USB hubs or USB extension cables.
