Dear Anyone. I know this is stoopid and I should know the answer, be kind! I've got 2 external hard drives attached to my Win10 machine. One's gone dodgy. I know PHYSICALLY which of the 2 it is, so I want to copy all the data from it to the other one BUT - I don't know how to tell which...

I'm on Windows 10 Home, using USB 3.0 EXT HDD (one Glyph & one Fantom) The Problem: I attempted to clone each drive using Macrium Reflect as I've done many times before to back up information. Something's up because both drives seem to be bricked. At the moment that is. If you look disk.jpg...

Hi, I'm using two win10 PCs (a Pro and a Home). I just built some symlinks in different folders to a target folder mp4 files. Now I have some time to copy these symlinks to my Notebook without having to build all of the symlinks again. That means that the target, which is visible on any of the...

I found a thread on this subject from sometimes back but there was no good solution so I want to ask this again. I upgraded my computer with a much faster but much smaller SSD drive. There is way to move c:\Users\user_name to another drives but that's not a good way todo because you have to do...

I just installed Windows 8.1 and when I went to look at My Computer (This PC) it says I only have Local Disk (C: ) and DVD RW Drive (E: ). How come I don't have (D: )? And if anyone knows what do I need to do while re-installing my windows to get it?

Anyone every see this, where in the "safely remove hardware" popup, it doesn't list the drive letters or info, so you can't know which drive to remove? Link Removed As a workaround, I am using a shortcut to the command: "C:\Windows\System32\rundll32.exe shell32.dll,Control_RunDLL hotplug.dll"...

Greetings: Now, for some reasons I had to reinstall Win 8 Pro 9200, but my drive letters got AGAIN screwed up. Annoyingly, I had to set them all back again, and having 20 partitions, it is a disaster. If I am, God forbids, to reinstall my W8 once more, is there a way to KEEP the partitions...

I have many Windows 2008 R2 servers running as my DCs. I created a drive mapping group policy on one of the 2008 servers to map my network drives in my AD environment. My Windows XP machines work great 100% of the time. In Windows 7, this is not the case. I cannot see the drive letters...
