  3. WD passport external HD not recognized on windows 10

    Hi Team,

    I have upgraded my Dell inspiron laptop OS from windows 7 to windows 10. I used to connect my WD external HD to my laptop and it was easily accessible in my computer as if it is laptops internal drive.

    But, now when I'm trying to connect, it getting connected but it is not showing in my computer. My OS is 64 bit.

    I tried solution of uninstalling and then installing HD but it didn't work.

    Please suggest how to resolve this.

    2 WD External HD lost their ALLOCATION after restarting Windows 10 ??

    Cannot see or access external hard drive after installing Windows 10

    I could not see one External HD's on Win 10, when I have 2 WD identical external HD's

    Maybe this fix will also work with the the OP's issue too?

    Right click "This PC" (as administrator) left click "manage", left click "Disc Management" For me, that was it!

    after about 15 seconds my 2nd WD HD appeared. If this does not fix it there are extra steps in youtube video I pasted below.

    Good luck
