    Hoe do I disconnect from One Drive?


    How do I disconnect one drive? How do I retrieve my data? When I try to disconnect or stop syncing, I lose all of my desktop shortcuts, I cant find my documents. I want my information on my PC not in Microsoft's possession / cloud.

    :)

    Lost data from hard drive, what to do now?

    Well, I'm sorry to hear that it's a WD My Passport that failed on you, @tomhenry ! *Frown Hoe do I disconnect from One Drive? :(
    I'd recommend you to try using a different USB cable with it and see if that will help your system to detect it without it disconnecting.
    I'd also suggest you to go to Disk Management and see how the drive is listed there. It won't hurt to check up on the health and SMART status of the HDD by running the QUICK and EXTENDED tests from the WD's Data LifeGuard Diagnostics. Here's a link to the available software: http://products.wdc.com/support/kb.ashx?id=11ZOpD

    Give these troubleshooting steps a try and keep us posted with the results!

    Hoe do I disconnect from One Drive?

    OS drive disconnecting while in use

    Okay so my SSD (listed in specs) keeps disconnecting itself while my desktop is in use. What happens is I'll be sitting there and suddenly progams stop working and crashing. Then Task Managerwwon't come up, followed by more programs and background services and then a BSOD.

    When it reboots the SSD isn't listed until I disconnect the power and boot it. Works for a bit, then drops again.

    Halp plz. I'm missing out on WCG crunching.
