    hi, I got "a device which does not exist was specified" error on my hard drive only on two specific folders. I just want to delete those. Interestingly, I could find anything on the internet. Any ideas?

  2. Windows error: "A Device which does not exist was specified" only appearing on a specific folder

    Hey,

    I keep getting the Windows error: "A Device which does not exist was specified" only appearing on a specific folder. Every other folder works and opens fine. Just this one specific folder.

    I can't open it, nor can I delete it.

    please help

    AMD Chipset Install Error: 1316, The Specified Account Already Exists

    In Device manager, most of those from that list are signed as Microsoft drivers, probably for compatibility purposes, just like disk drive drivers.
    These are only ones from that list that I can find that is signed as AMD.

    AMD Chipset Install Error: 1316, The Specified Account Already Exists

    @CountMike,

    Thanks.

    The link, here: How To Fix "Error 1316. The Specified Account Already Exists" Issue in Windows 10

    It's a bit too generic. The first step, regedit the software key by deleting all "AMD" seems a bit fraught with peril. *Wink

    I'll try to uninstall the v2.04.04.111 via the control panel and then install v2.10.13.408.

    The Chipset IO folder you posted an image of has 22 sub-directories. Yet, the installer only shows 6 items being updated (Power Plan, GPIO, PSP, SMBus, PCI Device, and GPIO (Promentory) ). That's where I'm puzzled by the manual option. If I open up device manager, I'm thinking I should go through a LOT of them, but I don't know exactly which ones (devices in device manager) correspond to the 6 items that AMD updater shows on its update (the image with the selectable six items).

    Have I made sense?

    Thanks,
    Ken
