  1. HDD seen as USB flash drive


    I have inserted in my Win10 64bit PC, an HDD drive (physically), beside the old one, where I have OS installed. Everything is ok, except that my OS see this new HDD as USB stick, right down in system tray, as USB flash drive, and I can eject it by there ... which is not ok. I have done something bad ?

    Thank you for your attention.

    :)

    when I try to do a windows update on build 10074 it will not update with the error you cannt install windows on a usb flash drvie and the only option to close? What is set wrong? Even tried to run setup.exe from the release build version from USB/DVD and
    get the same error message

    I searched the web and got USB Flash see as Hard drive not the other way around

    I don't think you can do an update from 10074. The keys no longer work
