    unable to close a drive


    I am using Windows 10 2004 64 bit. I inserted a thumb drive to back up my pc. It is the InfinitiKloud 64 bit. It didn't open after a time so I unplugged it.


    I should have used the "eject media safely" but I didn't. then I reinserted it and it said there was a program open that I had to close before I could continue. I looked in the control panel and seen drive "e" was showing up twice. My folder does not open and I am unable to find how to close a program that I can not see. I have restarted and shut down the machine but nothing changes. Now I am unable to use my back up thumb drive until I can close the program that I initially opened.

    :)

  2. (SOLVED/CLOSED)looking for help with Android phone CONSTANT wireless signal notification

    Yeah, thats not a solution she is interested in......I've suggested that course of action. Thanks though.

    Just to clarify, I feel that there MUST be a step, or series of steps to turn off JUST the wireless notification sound. Thats what Im driving @ here.

    unable to close a drive

    Unable to access Drives

    Hi Suneel,

    One of the reasons why you're unable to access your hard disk or an external hard drive is that these drives have been corrupted. For us to provide an accurate resolution, kindly elaborate the issue by answering the questions listed below:

    • Are you trying to access external hard drives or just partitioned drives on your PC?
    • Were there any changes on your PC before this happened like software or updates installed?

    Just to make sure, kindly verify if your hard drive is reflected in your Device Manager. Kindly follow the steps listed below to check it:

    • Press the Start button.
    • Type Device Manager.
    • Under Disk drives, kindly check if there's an error on the hard drive listed.

    We'll be waiting for your reply.
