    Seagate Backup Plus 4TB drive with Windows 10 stopped working

    I have a Dell XPS (L502X) laptop with Windows 10 Pro. (Previously running Windows 7 Ultimate) Approximately 24 hours after upgrading to Windows 10 Pro my Seagate Backup Plus Desktop drive has stopped working. When the drive is connected it causes Windows
    Explorer to freeze. Looking at the device driver in Device Manager it shows a default Microsoft driver from 2006 is installed. How to update this device driver? When I run troubleshooter Windows says this is the recommended driver.

    I personally do not recommend third party driver software.

    Have you downloaded the drivers you need or did they come pre-installed?

    OPTION 1:
    Download Driver 4.1 Backup Download . Unzip and run to backup all current drivers in your PC to a folder of your choice and later on you can restore from it, saving the trouble of having to re-install every single driver.

    OPTION 2:
    Use Windows built in DISM command. Open Admin Command Prompt. Copy and paste the lines below and run. It will save all the drivers to a folder: C:\Drivers
    md c:\Drivers
    Dism /Online /Export-Driver /Destination:C:\Drivers
    @echo Done

    Copy CodeBox into a notepad txt file and Save As > GetDrivers.cmd
    then just run the cmd as admin

    Script will export either On-Line or Off-Line Windows system drivers

    Code: @echo off title EXPORT SYSTEM DRIVERS color 17 ECHO. ECHO =============================================================================== ECHO. ECHO. (A) EXPORT CURRENT WINDOWS INSTALLATION DRIVERS ECHO. ECHO. (B) EXPORT OFF-LINE WINDOWS INSTALLATION DRIVERS ECHO. ECHO. (X) EXIT THIS GET-DRIVERS PROGRAM ECHO.
