Step four: look at the drives displayed in the right-hand panel and pick out the CD drive on which the problem occurs (if there is more than one drive). It seems to have disappeared from WD software. Step three: select the last option you can see in the left sidebar it’s called CD/DVD Drive and designed especially for compact disc recovery. I was praying Id be generally near the pin and not looking for my disc. its weakness is if your CD is not in the database then AccurateRip cannot help. I also wonder what happened to the WD utility that I used to have (on a previous PC) that would re-lock and allow removal of the drive safely. There are a lot of blind shots so you do a lot of hiking to find the baskets. Anyway, does anyone have any advice Ive tried looking at the disc via File Explorer and it too doesnt see any files there. There are 3 ways to detect errors, the first method and strongest is by. I think that’s what the WD Erase utility does. But maybe all I need to do to erase them is reformat them. I have already erased this yellow drive and relocked it using the new WD Security program. You need WD Utilities to do that, I think. This is a concern because of the problem with the security holes in WD’s hardware encryption that have been widely reported and discussed in this forum.Ī partial fix (supposedly) from WD for the security issue is to use a new version of the Security (lock drive) program after first erasing the drive. What you lose with not having WD Utils is the Erase function. Uninstalling the WD Utilities worked perfectly for me with a WD Yellow 2Tb drive.
