I recently purchased a 1 TB flash drive from eBay, and I'm having a lot of trouble with it. Some video files play perfectly fine, but others give me an error saying the format is incorrect or that they're corrupted. I'm looking for ways to fix these issues without losing the data I've already stored on the drive. Just to mention, I'm using Windows 11 on a Lenovo Yoga. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Be careful when dealing with USB drives! It's essential to backup your files before doing anything with the drive, just in case it gets worse. You might also want to try running a disk check in Windows to see if there are any errors.
It sounds like you might have a counterfeit drive. A lot of fake flash drives are sold online, and they often don't function correctly. I suggest checking the available storage on your drive to see if it really has the 1 TB capacity you paid for. Sometimes, they will show more space than they actually have.
