    I am having an issue with an external drive


    I have a Touro external drive. I can see it in my devices and printers but it is not visible on my computer. I tried some other helps I saw on here with the disk management and also downloaded the windows Partition wizard free 9.1 but I still cannot recover my items.

    Please help! This disk has all my business documents.

    :)

  2. I am having an issue on Windows 10 with stretched screen

    Hello Gino,

    An incompatible display driver
    is one of the possible reasons why you experience issues with your display screen after the recent update.

    To resolve this, we recommend performing the suggestions posted by DaveM121, Andre da Costa and Sumit Dhiman2 in this
    thread. Quite a few people found their suggestions helpful.

    Let us know if that worked out for you.

  3. I am having an issue on Windows 10 with stretched screen

    I suspect that something in Windows 10 caused my screen display to appear stretched and somewhat blurry. Nothing seems to work. Changing the resolution, updating drivers did not work.

    I am having an issue with an external drive

    Welcome to the forum. Can you see it in disk manager if so it may just need assigning a drive letter

    So, I followed another thread that suggested downloading the Partitian Wizard Free. I also tried that but did not get anything.

    Try creating a live Linux DVD or USB drive and see if you can recover your files with that. Ubuntu and Linux Mint are very popular. The same thing happen to my WD portable drive. Every time I plugged it in, Windows wanted to format it. I got lucky with Linux Mint and recovered all my files. This is the program I used to make the Flash drive.
