I’m about to give up on WD Backup and go back to the Window 10 backup if I can’t figure this out today or tomorrow. Sorry this is such a long post but I wanted to make the symptoms and what I’ve tried to do clear. I can’t figure out what’s wrong or what to do. Use 'Full Scan' to recover data from WD elements not working Windows 10 external hard drive which can not be found with 'undelete' and 'unformat' and 'recover partition',after showing an error,display as raw file system,unformatted,unknown partition,unpartitioned,needs to be formatted,or the file system is not exfat,not fat32,not ntfs. I’ve uninstalled WD Backup and reinstalled (I was running the latest version).
I’ve made changes to several files so it can’t be that nothing has changed.įinally, the regularly scheduled backup that was supposed to happen this morning ( 12:30 AM) doesn’t seem to have happened either. There’s no evidence of anything being backed up from today when I go to Restore File. WD does not see my drive Make sure that the WD backup drive helper service starts side by side when WD backup is opened. Both times it said it was done in about 10 minutes. Accessory Kits and Tapes Manufacturers Genuine Ribbons Starting at 1.99. Much to my chagrin the file I needed had been corrupted in the backup so I had to try and bring up to date a 3 month old file. I’m not getting any messages that it’s not running, but in looking to restore a file yesterday I found that the backups were WD Backup is scheduled to run every night at around 12:30 AM. I’m using WD Backup to backup files from my C: drive (Win 10) to a 4 TB My Passport.
