    I own a Simpletech external hard drive that used to work with my Windows 7 computer. But, I tried to access it on my Windows 10 computer, and it didn't work. I don't have a Windows 7 computer anymore. I upgraded it to Windows 10. Why can't I access my Simpletech drive?

    Old SimpleTech Simpledrive Driver


    ===================
    It worked for windows versions prior to Windows 10.
    I don't know if SimpleTech is still in business.
    Effect on me: I still have several computers running old windows, so the two drives, I bought many years ago, are still useful to me.
    So the effect on me is not that much. Btw, someone else started this thread, I posted because I happened to have the same problems. It would be nice if the drive can work with Windows 10, if not - no big deal.

    That's a very interesting point, I don't know the answer.
    MS has been fixing a long list of Windows 10 problems.

    I've never understood this attitude. Why is it up to Microsoft to fix the problem and not SimpleTech? I would be asking SimpleTech when they were going to supply a Win 10 compatible driver for their device.

    My SimpleTech 400 GB Simple Drive doesn't work with Windows 10.

    My SimpleTech external drive is not listed in My Computer. Per your questions above, it is listed in device manager but not in disk management. I would like to use this as a backup drive for my C drive data. Can anyone help me get it to work in my
    Windows 10 system?
