The Paragon driver was removed during installation, so need to uninstall it. I used a similar method for my MacBook after losing the drive when I upgraded to Sierra. I selected "Test Software" and it ran the program without issue and I now have access to my external hard drive again. When I selected "Troubleshoot Compatibility", it suggested the best mode was "Windows Vista".

Right Click the HFS4win.exe file (the install file from Seagate)ĥ. Plug in the Seagate Hard drive **It is important for the external hard drive to be plugged in prior to running the software**ģ. Uninstall the Paragon HFS+ Software from Add/Remove ProgramsĢ. Since there's NO indication what "unauthorized" means, could Win 10 have seen the drive's built-in Mac partition and viewed it as an unauthorized device, needing to be disabled?ġ. The reason this troubles me: this drive is a Seagate "Backup+ Desktop and Mac" which is marketed by Seagate as primarily a Mac drive, but which is compatible with PC. It says: "We may automatically check your version of the software and download software updates or configuration changes, including those that prevent you from accessing the Services, playing counterfeit games, or using unauthorized hardware peripheral devices." It's like the system SEES the drive, but refuses to actually use it.Įven more alarming - recent reports indicate that Win 10 has the ability to disable "unauthorized" devices, based on a very vague wording in the EULA. The weird thing is, all of the tests and advanced reformats were successful, but the problem persists. Thanks Boogieman! Well, I've now tried everything I can - I got Seagate's recovery tools and ran all of the tests and attempted reformatting every possible way.

I don't know if the two are related but it seems awfully coincidental.Ĭan anyone tell me what to do to get this drive showing back up and usable again? This is pretty infuriating my internal drive came through the update fine, but the external which houses my backup (and much more) was borked. Check the system Event log for details." The last message in the event viewer is that the device "failed to migrate" which happened the night I upgraded.Įven more odd is that I've been getting occasional blue screens with the error code "bad_pool_caller" which appears to be some sort of driver problem. Since I can't use it, and can't recover the files, I decided to format through Computer Management as a last-ditch effort, but get the following error: Panicking now, I ran a data recovery program and found most of my files, but they are mostly corrupted and unrecoverable.
I refreshed, reopened, and restarted, but the issue persisted. Refresh and try again, and if the problem persists please close and reopen Computer Management or restart the computer" "The operation failed to complete because the Disk Management console view is not up-to-date.

I checked Computer Management and see the 1800 GB volume (2TB minus a 200 GB partition for mac files) but when I right click and go to properties, I get the following message: The weird thing is, I can't open the drive to view it. Also, the drive appears in the "safely remove" menu in the SysTray. I updated the Seagate dashboard, and it shows the drive, which appears now to be completely empty. Last night I discovered my half-full Seagate Drive was no longer showing up in This PC. I have a Seagate 2TB Backup Plus drive which has worked great for over a year.
