    unable to rename external hard drive

    Hi,

    I suggest you to ensure you are logged into an Administrator user account and check if you still find the issue. Generally the error message is related to permissions. If you do not have sufficient permissions to view the file/folder/drive you
    get this error message. I suggest you to try to take the ownership of the external drive and check if it helps.


          • Press Windows key + X and click on Command Prompt
            (Admin).

          • Type in the command takeown /f <drive_name> \ /R /D Y

          • You can replace the < drive_name(F)>
            with the target drive name.
    Refer, https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/2623670(Applies to Windows
    10)


    Hope this information is helpful. Please do let us know if you need further assistance, we’ll be glad to assist you.

  3. External drive

    Hi Richard,

    There are several factors that can cause your external drive to not read DVDs even though the system is recognizing the device. This could be caused by a driver that needs to updated or corrupted files. For us to resolve your concern, kindly answer the questions
    below:

    • Just to confirm, the device that is not working properly is a external DVD optical drive?
    • Were there any recent changes or updates installed on your computer?
    • Have you tried to plug the external drive to a different port on your computer?

    As a initial recommendation, we suggest that your run the built in troubleshooter in Windows 10. Kindly refer to the steps below:

    • Type “Troubleshooting” in the Search bar and press Enter.
    • Click on “View All” in the top left corner.
    • This will display the list of troubleshooters which are built-in in the computer. You can click on
      Hardware and Devices from the list and you can run the troubleshooter.

    This will check for common errors that affect hardware on your computer and attempts to correct them.

    We look forward to your response after completing the steps.

    unable to rename external hard drive

    I tried what you said, but it still says "you need permission to perform this action". I have access to everything on the drive. It is only the autorun.inf that i no longer have access to and because of that when i rename the drive it shows the new name
    in disk management but it stays the same in my computer. I am using windows 10 pro.
