Re-boot (I.E: do a hard restart) of the system, it will recreate the required folder structure.

And you can see / read those books on the Kindle?

Bad USB connection - check for:
* Bad connector (either at the Kindle or the PC)
* Bad cable
* A "power only" USB cable (from some other type of device)
* A bad port (either at the Kindle or the PC)

* Did it work before? Did you format/reinstall your PC?
* Did you try with another PC USB port, or PC machine, or another working 'data' cable?

I am sure that the port and the cable are fine because I tried them both with kindle the first edition so I think if I can copy the folder system of another paperwhite it will resolve my problem

Ah, so that narrows it down to the connector on the Kindle.

And yes, we have seen broken (or worn out) USB connectors on the Kindles.

(It is a replaceable part, the problem is just that it requires special board re-work tools.
The electronic's department of a nearby school or university will have the tools, if you know someone with access.
If you have to hire the work done - a new Kindle is probably cheaper. )

I don't think its broken because i can charge my kindle and even use it as a usb storage device but not a kindle any more so i have to choose to use it as ebook reader but juste with wifi or a usb device

Hmm.....
That is a little bit more detail than has been given previously. (*)

Now - just what do you mean by "can not use it as a Kindle" ?
The only things you can normally do using the USB cable is charge the device (yup) and use it as a USB storage device (yup).

(*) You have to tell us the details, nobody here wants to go to the trouble of booting up their crystal ball and channeling into your mind (that would involve serious privacy issues).
