Silly question? USB stick not totally seen

Help and Support Raspberry Pi
1

Hello all
I have a 60 Gb USB stick (VFAT) attached to my RPI2 to store files and share them with Syncthing.
It works.
But I wanted to use it to backup OSMC (with the Kodi add-on) and when browsing to the location, I can’t see the directories (it’s just written: ’System Volume Information’).

Any idea of what’s happening?

dmesg
gives this error:

FAT-fs (sda1): Volume was not properly unmounted. Some data may be corrupt. Please run fsck.

and fsck gives

fsck from util-linux 2.25.2
fsck.fat 3.0.27 (2014-11-12)
0x41: Dirty bit is set. Fs was not properly unmounted and some data may be corrupt.

  1. Remove dirty bit
  2. No action
    ?

What can I do to fix this issue?
Help needed please.

You could try the -a flag. It seemed to help these people
