Floppy Disk Drive un accessible

I've recently found the advanced dnd floppy games in my parents storage room and have been wanting to run them since. I have bought a USB Floppy Drive but its unable to use or even access the floppy drive. Windows only gives whenever i attempt to use the drive in any manner I would love any help in solving this issue for i have wasted far too many hours fighting this alone. I'm currently on windows 11, i have tried to start the pc with the drive in and then access it, plug-in the drive while its running to allow it to attempt to open it then, attempted and failed to re-format the drive itself
