File history won't detect external HHD

Hi,

I have an issue regarding Backup using File History.

I have an external HDD connected to my desktop with USB 3.0 that is not detected when I select "Add a drive".

The drive is visible though in file explorer and in device manager. I'm using the external HDD continuously without issues.

But when I'm trying to use it in File History it isn't detected.

I've tried the normal things like udate to latest software and frimware om both my computer and on my external HDD.

I've tried to restart both the computer and the external HHD.

I've tried to swtich to another USB-port, from I/O to USB-jacket.

I've tried to uninstall and reinstall the external HDD.

I've also looked in advanced settings but same issue.

What more is there to try?

Regards,

Simon
