    Western Digital Passport drives autorun?


    Hello, i'm moving back to 10 recently. I recall on 1st version i tried, when i plugged my WD Passport, i was asked what to do. Now not anymore. There is an autorun app that's launching to unlock the drive (hardware encryption enabled). How do i fix that?

    :)

    Windows 10 does not recognize western digital My passport Ultra external hard drive

    I don' know if that is related to my problem, but I found out (not from Western Digital) that you can only plug a "Western Digital Passport" into a computer usb port. You CANNOT plug it into a usb HUB. That seemed to have changed with Windows 10. Bummer,
    because computers have so few usb ports making it necessary to unplug something else in order to use a "Western Digital Passport" hard drive. I think "Western Digital" failed to write device drivers for Windows 10, but they will never admit that.

    Is the autorun application running from the drive or from the system? If from the drive, delete the autorun.ini or any executables on the drive. If you cannot, try enabling hidden files and delete it. Otherwise you may have to format the drive
