  1. windows 10 reads backup drive


    Hello, when I play music on media player win 10 reads my backup drive and accesses the internet this slows the computer and media player locks up. Is win 10 storing on the cloud?

    :)

    Skipped file during backup

    Win 7 backup is there to read your old windows 7 backups, not to use for current backups. The backup program has changed for windows 10. You should use windows 10 backup for current backup. You need an external hard drive to save the backups. Use System
    Image every few months to keep a complete image of the whole hard drive on the external drive to restore everything in case of disaster. That is not for everyday backups. Those are automatic. See--

    Paragon Driver for Windows

    I have a Seagate external "for Mac" drives that uses the Paragon HFS+ Driver for Windows in Windows 8.1 to read the drive and was wondering if it will work in Windows 10 because I read an Amazon review where someone said it doesn't.

    Can someone confirm if they upgraded to Win 10 and can see and read their Mac formatted external Seagate drive.

    I get no warning from compatibility report about this either.

    Thanks.

  5. Sounds likely, I'll check if the drive activity stops when media player downloads stop Cheers

    In both cases, use your task manager to identify what's responsible for the activity.

    yeah it doesnt download, just the track listings and album covers if it can but does take a while if your music collection is large
