    Can't get new Seagate Backup Plus to Work


    Bought a Seagate Backup Plus. It works on my laptop but not on my PC. PC doesn't recognize it.

    How can I get it to work. I know that the drive works so the problem is with Windows 10

    :)

    Seagate Backup Plus

    Seagate Backup Plus 5 Tb drive shows up on my Windows 10 device manager but does not show up on the file history and scheduler does not work.

    Spent 2 hours with Seagate Tech support but said it's a Microsoft problem.

    Seagate Backup Plus Slim and Windows 10

    I am able to backup my files using Seagate Backup Plus Slim. Windows 10 tells me my Seagate software is up to date. However I keep getting notifications to backup my files on the Windows 10 Notifications Board. Also Windows 10 does not allow me to add
    my Seagate Backup as an external device and seems not to be registering that I am already backing up my files to an the external Seagate hard drive. Any suggestions?

    Can't get new Seagate Backup Plus to Work

    Seagate Backup Plus 4TB drive with Windows 10 stopped working

    My Seagate Backup Plus stopped working when I upgraded to MS 10. My Seagate Dashboard said the software (4.021.0) was up to date. My troubleshooter said the device was working properly. I FINALLY went to Seagate's website, which indicated that Seagate
    Backup Plus works with MS 10 ONLY for software versions 4.2.x or later. Soooo....guess I am out of luck with being able to use my existing backup drive.
