I have the same problem with Nuvi 50 purchased in 2015 with lifetime map.
After the 2024.10 update, it's no longer detected by computer or Garmin Express. I tried different OS: win7, win 10, win 11. None detected it.
The USB cable is fine. I tried transfering data on a flash drive using the same USB cable.
I went to the testing page by long pressing battery icon. It shows USB DC current but USB connection not detected.
I suspect Garmin update bricked the GPS from last update.
But navigation still works.

Still working would mean its not bricked, you've eliminated the USB cable, USB drivers & PC.

These nuvi 4x 5x suffer from the USB port breaking away from the PCB. The first thing I would do is see if the whole USB socket has any movement

If it is loose repair is the best solution, but there are ways to update your device via SD card
